Curiosity, diversity, and complete dedication to the music define the work of French-Canadian cellist Jean-Guihen Queyras. His approach to music focuses on the principle that composer, performer, and audience must share the same inner motivation to achieve a moving, clear concert experience. This philosophy, alongside a flawless technique and a clear, engaging tone, has formed a foundation for a flourishing, decades-long career: regular performances with renowned orchestras, including the Philadelphia Orchestra, Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks, London Symphony Orchestra, Gewandhausorchester, and Tonhalle Orchestra Zurich; an impressive 27 recordings in as many years; and artist-in-residence appointments at Concertgebouw Amsterdam and Festival d’Aix-en-Provence, Vredenburg Utrecht, De Bijloke Ghent, and Orchestre Philharmonique de Strasbourg.

Infusing “intoxicating grace” with “exceptional musicality” and “inconceivable virtuosity,” pianist and 2013 Cliburn finalist Fei-Fei conjures a special and undeniable connectivity with her audiences that brings joy, passion, and deep musical understanding (Badische Neueste Nachrichten). Recent projects include her role as artist-in-residence with the Baden-Baden Philharmonic, a Carnegie Hall performance and European tour with the New York Youth Symphony, a cross-disciplinary collaboration with Ballet Arkansas, and a 19-city tour of China with her Aletheia Piano Trio.

Due to travel complications, Alexander Melnikov will not be able to perform. Jean-Guihen Queyras will now be joined by 2013 Cliburn finalist Fei-Fei on piano.
