Gabriel Cabezas, violoncello and Andrew Tyson, piano
Cellist Gabriel Cabezas was born in 1992, and began his music studies at age four. He has been portrayed as “…an intense player who connects to the music naturally, without artifice, and brings a singing line to the cello” (The Oregonian). His debut performance with The Cleveland Orchestra was described as a “…remarkably poised and elegant account, with superb attention to phrasing, nuance and tonal coloration” (The Plain Dealer).
At the age of 22, pianist Andrew Tyson is already the recipient of many awards and prizes, including Second Prize at the Kosciuszko Foundation Chopin Piano Competition and a Silver Award from the National Foundation for the Advancement of the Arts. Entering his final year of studies with Claude Frank at the Curtis Institute of Music, Mr. Tyson has performed at a number of prestigious venues.
The concert is open to the public with no admission charge, donations are appreciated.
Gabriel Cabezas and Andrew Tyson’s recital in Joplin is part of Partners in Performance’s new Young Artist Program, the organization that sponsored Midori & Charles Abramovic’s Pro Musica recital last season. Partners in Performance aims to keep chamber music alive and accessible by supporting dedicated classical presenters in communities across America. For more information, visit www.pipmusic.org.
