FCM’s celebration of Beethoven’s 250th Birthday will conclude when Alisa Weilerstein and Inon Barnatan play the complete Beethoven Sonatas for cello and piano. Weilerstein, a MacArthur Fellow before the age of 30, has been honored with both the Leonard Bernstein Prize and an Avery Fisher Career Grant. Barnatan is completing his third season as Artist-in-Association of the New York Philharmonic and is an FCM audience favorite returning after last season’s performance with the St. Lawrence String Quartet.
“Their interpretations were like a series of marvelously expressive close-ups: every note and phrase pinned to an exact emotion, every emotion saturating the frame.” – Boston Globe
