Musicians from the New York Philharmonic

The three virtuosic musicians, including Cong Wu (assistant principal violist) and Nathan Vickery (youngest cellist ever joined NY Phil in 2021), will fully explore the brilliance and lyricism of string repertoire, from the Schubert’s most treasured miniature gem, Francaix bright and crisp string trio with a hint of 1933 Parisian buoyancy to Panderecki’s gloomily witty and virtuosic composition. Joined by pianist and director Sophia Zhou, the evening will conclude with Gabriel Faure’s consummate Piano Quartet No. 1 in c minor, the crown jewel of French Romanticism.
