Yi-Bing Chu was a professor at Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Dance de Paris. He is the first professor of Chinese nationality since the establishment of this famous institution in 1795. Last pupil of the legendary French master cellist Maurice Gendron, Chu was the first Chinese cellist ever to win a prize in a major international Cello competition. He served as principal cellist in Basel Symphony Orchestra, Switzerland between 1989-2004, Yi-Bing Chu was also guest principal cellist of Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra in Munich, Germany.
Ms. Xiao Dong, a piano and cello artist, will serve as the piano accompanist. The concert repertoire is gorgeous, exquisite and exciting. There are not only beautiful classic works by composers such as Bach, Caccini, Rachmaninov, and Paganini, but also famous and difficult sonatas by composers such as Debussy and Franck.
Such a rare music feast is not to be missed! See you on May 18th!
