Canellakis–Brown Duo — Saturday, March 21, 3:00 pm
Cellist Nicholas Canellakis and pianist Michael Stephen Brown form a dynamic and deeply musical duo. Their partnership fuses Brown’s dual identity as composer-performer with Canellakis’s compelling range as a cellist, resulting in programs that traverse both new and established repertoire. Their performances have been praised for their seamless interplay, emotional depth, and adventurous programming. They “play with their antennae tuned to each other” – The Washington Post website
