This program highlights the collective virtuosity of NYCP’s members. Michael Schachter’s Capriccio for two cellos demonstrates the give-and-take that is possible in a duo setting, while Dvorak’s beloved Serenade for Strings showcases the powerful unified music making of large ensemble playing done with a chamber music sensibility. NYCP is proud to continue its commissioning projects with the premiere of Corvus Mythicus by Jeremy Gill. Closing the program is the brooding and romantic Schumann Cello Concerto. Presented in a masterful version by NYCP’s principal music arranger Yoomi Paick, NYCP will be joined by New York Philharmonic principal cellist Carter Brey.
