He received the 2009 Avery Fisher Career Grant, became the New York Philharmonic's first Artist in Association in 2014, and frequently collaborates with cellist Alisa Weilerstein.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791), born in Salzburg, Austria, was a classical child prodigy. He composed over 600 masterpieces across genres like opera, symphony, and chamber music. Known for his elegant, balanced style, his famous works include "The Marriage of Figaro," "Don Giovanni," "The Magic Flute," and Symphony No. 40. He is considered one of Western music's greatest composers.
Felix Mendelssohn, a German Romantic composer born in Hamburg, was a child prodigy known for his lyrical melodies and elegant orchestration. He blended Classical forms with Romantic expression, creating popular works like the "Wedding March," Violin Concerto, and Italian Symphony. Mendelssohn also revived Bach's music and founded the Leipzig Conservatory.
Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750), born in Eisenach, Germany, was a pivotal Baroque composer. Renowned for his mastery of counterpoint and polyphony, he enriched German styles with Italian and French influences. His prolific output includes iconic works like the Brandenburg Concertos, The Well-Tempered Clavier, Mass in B Minor, and Toccata and Fugue in D Minor. Bach is celebrated as one of history's greatest composers, whose genius continues to inspire.
Jonathan Cohen, an English cellist, conductor, and keyboardist from Manchester, is celebrated for his expertise in early music, Baroque opera, and Classical repertoire. He founded the acclaimed ensemble Arcangelo and co-founded the London Haydn Quartet. Known for historically informed performances and a passion for chamber music, he has garnered Gramophone Awards and Grammy nominations for recordings like "Arias for Guadagni" and "Buxtehude's Trio Sonatas".
