Charlotte Thiele, Bryan Cheng & Silvie Cheng: Legacry

This program brings together German violinist Charlotte Thiele, our 2025/26 Musician-in-Residence cellist Bryan Cheng, and pianist Silvie Cheng for a performance that seamlessly blends emotion, intensity, and virtuosity. The program features Alexander Glazunov’s “Sérénade espagnole” and “Chant du ménestrel”, works that bring warmth and lyrical beauty to the stage, as well as Dmitri Shostakovich’s “Piano Trio no. 2 in E minor”, a piece rich with dramatic contrast. The trio also performs Lili Boulanger’s evocative “2 Morceaux pour violon et piano”, alongside Astor Piazzolla’s “Cuatro Estaciones Porteñas,” a vivid portrayal of the four seasons in Buenos Aires, showcasing the trio’s mastery of both classical and contemporary styles. With each work, Thiele and the Chengs offer a dynamic, multifaceted musical journey. Together, these internationally acclaimed musicians bring a deep sense of collaboration and artistry, having performed at countless prestigious venues worldwide. They have also shared their talents with renowned orchestras, bringing their chamber music expertise to larger ensembles across the globe.
