“…boldly imaginative and technically assured…”– Boston Globe
“Soaring lines with both beauty and intensity…”
– The New York Times
Celebrating over 50 years of captivating performances, the Fischer Duo brings their boldly imaginative and technically assured artistry to a program that explores the profound “late style” in music. The evening features Beethoven’s final cello sonata alongside George Rochberg’s deeply moving Sonata-Aria, one of his last compositions, and William Bolcom’s Cello Sonata #2 (2020)—a work that embodies the very essence of Bolcom’s finest writing. Both the Rochberg and Bolcom pieces were commissioned, premiered, and recorded by the Fischers, who have built a celebrated legacy championing new music alongside masterworks of the past. Join us for an unforgettable concert that promises “long, thrilling arcs of dramatic insight” (Gramophone) and the “slow-burning combustion” (Toledo Blade) that has made the Fischer Duo beloved by audiences around the world.
This special afternoon will be marked by an afterglow following the performance. Complimentary sparkling wine and other beverages and a light selection of treats will be shared, and patrons will be welcome to mingle with the artists and enjoy one another’s company.
Norman Fischer, cello
Jeanne Kierman Fischer, piano
