Cellist Gabriel Cabezas—praised by the LA Times for his “virtuosity [that] includes getting the cello to make a whole host of amazing sounds you would never conjure coming from the instrument”—joins pianist Ingrid Keller for an evening of powerful sonatas. The program journeys from Beethoven’s groundbreaking Cello Sonata No. 2 to Barber’s passionate and lyrical Cello Sonata, culminating in Paul Wiancko’s Shifting Baselines, a contemporary work that speaks to memory, change, and resilience. Together, Cabezas and Keller bridge centuries of music with artistry and depth.
