About this Event

Tuesday Evening at 6:30 pm

MARCH 4, 2025


Prepare for an array of beautiful performances featuring unusual combinations by two pianists and one cellist - exceptional pianist Alessio Bax, acclaimed cellist Paul Watkins join Artistic Director Gloria Chien for this serendipitous evening of musical gems. From the intimacy of Bach’s solo cello, the refinement in Schubert’s Andantino varié, the allure in Rachmaninoff’s Waltz and Romance, to the exuberance in Beethoven’s final sonata for cello and piano in D, you will hear the exploration of humanity through the hands of these grand masters!
