Watch This Space | Alisa Weilerstein & Friends

In the organizer's words:

Perfectly artful, emotionally committed, of rare interpretative depth - these are just some of Alisa Weilerstein's qualities. The American cellist is one of the most important in her field. The New York Times marveled thus:

"Weilerstein is a reminiscence of an earlier age of classical performers: Not content to serve as a vessel for the composer's wishes, she completely absorbs a piece and makes it her own."

And the Los Angeles Times:

"Weilerstein's cello is her own self. She doesn't give the impression that the music-making involves any will at all. She and the cello simply seem to be one and the same."

See for yourself up close when she plays music by Dmitri Shostakovich with her friends from the BRSO in the Watch This Space evening!
