The FaReLa Duo will be playing a program entitled "Exotic Romanticism" in the Hubbard Room of the Russell Library on Saturday, November 5th, beginning at 1:30pm
Cellist Tanya Anisimova and pianist
Pi-Hsun Shih have been drawing rave reviews ever since their debut at
Carnegie Hall's Weill Recital Hall in 2012. The two met while studying in Boston many years ago. After pursuing
separate careers, they were able to reconnect in 2011. Both are
versatile chamber musicians and teachers with a wealth of expertise.
Described as a pianist of 'searing
precision' by the Hartford Courant, Taiwanese-American Pi-Hsun Shih has
been a featured soloist with the Sao Paulo State Symphony, The
Hartt Symphony, and the Mexico State Symphony Orchestra. She has
performed with ensembles such as Empire Brass and the Emerson
String Quartet.
Tanya Anisimova is an internationally renowned Russian cellist and
composer. In addition to composing, performing and
touring, she has taught master-classes at Moscow Conservatory, Hartt
School of Music, Loyola University, and Virginia Commonwealth University
among others. Celebrated cellist Janos Starker has hailed Anisimova as,
'an Everest
climber,' and a 'high class cellist with a strong and inventive musical
mind.”
