BRAHMS, SCHUMANN, MENDELSSOHN-
COMPLETE WORKS
FOR CELLO AND PIANO

Monday, April 12, 2010 and
Thursday, April 15 at 8:00 pm

Recital Hall - $42

Colin Carr and Thomas Sauer perform the complete works for cello and piano of Brahms, Schumann and Mendelssohn at concert halls across the world as their major recital project for 09-10. “We offer these recitals as an exploration of the musical connections between Mendelssohn, Schumann and the much younger Brahms,” they note. “All three show their true colors in their music for cello and piano.”

Both performers are active soloists, chamber musicians, recording artists and teachers. Mr. Carr is an esteemed member of the faculty at Stony Brook University, and has appeared often as a guest cellist with the Guarneri and Emerson String Quartets and with New York’s Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center. 

Pianist Thomas Sauer is a member of the Mannes Trio, ensemble-in-residence at the Mannes College of Music in New York City. Mr. Sauer also collaborates frequently with the renowned violinist Midori.

Your ticket includes a reserved seat for both concerts. Free preperformance talks with Thomas Sauer will be held at 7:00 pm in the Recital Hall both evenings.
