Recital: Letian Cheng '27 DMA, Violin

NEC: Keller Room | Directions

290 Huntington Ave.
Boston, MA
United States

In the course of completing the Doctor of Musical Arts degree at New England Conservatory, performance majors present not just one, but three full-length recitals, for which they also write program notes.  It's an opportunity to observe multiple facets of an emerging artist.

Letian Cheng '27 DMA studies Violin with Paul Biss and is the recipient of a scholarship made possible by the Ken and Barbara Burnes Scholarship Fund.

This is an in-person event with a private stream available to the NEC community here: https://necmusic.edu/live
