| 13-Jan-2013 Lincoln Center: Alice Tully Hall | Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center: Dvořák and Brahms |
 The talent was top-shelf at Alice Tully Hall on Sunday evening, kicking off 2013 for the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center with a cello sonata by Brahms, and trios by Dvořák and Haydn. Emerson String Quartet violinist Philip Setzer joined co-artistic directors of the Society David Finckel on (cello) and Wu Han (piano). The concertgoers filled the hall to near-capacity, braving New York’s flu season for the chance to hear the trio perform the Dvořák trios that the group has recently recorded.

| 5-Aug-2012 Menlo-Atherton Performing Arts Center | Music@Menlo: An impassioned chamber performance |
 The seventh of the Concert Programs at the annual Music@Menlo summer chamber music festival was entitled “Impassioned.” The beautifully comprehensive and informative program books offered an accompanying image of the Eiffel Tower during an electrical storm, forks of lightning breaking over the ominous Parisian skyline, alluding to the “visceral emotions” that were to come from tonight’s performance. With a strong lineup of works by Schumann, Fauré and Dvořák in store, I left the calming sunny skies of Atherton outside and prepared myself for the storm of music to come.

| 31-Jan-2012 Lincoln Center: Alice Tully Hall | The Romance of the Clarinet: Trios at the Lincoln Center |
 It’s difficult to find criticism for a concert like this. Three venerable musicians who are familiar colleagues meet over three gorgeous pieces of music – what’s not to love? And a program of three clarinet trios is like a three-course meal of desserts. True, the execution may have sacrificed spontaneity for the smooth, glossy sound one expects from recordings, but a pitch-perfect performance is still an enjoyable one.
