About Steven Isserlis:
Acclaimed worldwide for his profound musicianship and technical mastery, British cellist Steven Isserlis enjoys a distinguished career as a soloist, chamber musician, educator, author, and broadcaster. As a concerto soloist he appears regularly with the world’s leading orchestras and conductors. Recent engagements include performances with the Berlin Philharmonic, Cleveland, Minnesota, and Zurich Tonhalle Orchestras. Highlights of the 2015/16 season include a survey of the complete Bach Cello Suites at venues that include Wigmore Hall; recital programs with Ian Bostridge, Stephen Hough, Robert Levin, and Richard Egarr; and a special recital with Sir Andras Schiff. His recording of the complete Solo Cello Suites by J.S. Bach for Hyperion met with the highest critical acclaim, and was Gramophone’s Instrumental Disc of the Year and Critic’s Choice at the Classical Brits. “Steven Isserlis was anything but routine. Isserlis flings himself into music . . . he’s utterly committed to every moment, making a light, elegant sound that is anything but exaggerated.” The Washington Post.

Praised by The New York Times for his “uncommon sensitivity and feeling,” the Israeli pianist, Roman Rabinovich, is the winner of the prestigious 2008 Arthur Rubinstein International Piano Master Competition. Mr. Rabinovich has performed throughout the United States, Europe, and Israel in such prestigious venues as Wigmore Hall, Leipzig’s Gewandhaus, Carnegie’s Zankel Hall, and the Millennium Stage of the Kennedy Center in Washington DC.
