Celebrity Series of Boston Presents: Alisa Weilerstein, cello & Inon Barnatan, piano
Jordan Hall
Artist(s)
Cellist Alisa Weilerstein and pianist Inon Barnatan reunite for their fourth appearance together on the Series since their joint debut in 2008. After nearly two decades of shared stages, collaborative recordings, and various other artistic projects, their profound artistic connection and heartfelt camaraderie radiate with every performance.
Their recital program masterfully pairs Brahms and Shostakovich sonatas for cello and piano with transcribed and arranged works originally written for other string instruments by the same iconic composers.
Johannes Brahms: Sonata for Violin and Piano in G Major, Op. 78, "Regensonate," (transcribed for cello by Barnatan/Weilerstein)
Dmitri Shostakovich: Sonata for Cello and Piano in D minor, Op. 40
Brahms: Sonata for Cello and Piano No. 1 in E minor, Op. 38
Shostakovich: Sonata for Viola and Piano, Op. 147 (transcribed for cello by Daniil Shafran)
