" ...  arguably Yo-Yo Ma's heiress apparent as sovereign of  the American cello."  New York Magazine

Cellist Alisa Weilerstein is internationally renowned as one of the premiere soloists and chamber musicians of her generation. She has appeared with many prestigious ensembles, among them the orchestras of Baltimore, Boston, Chicago, Cleveland, Minnesota, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and San Francisco, as well as the New York Philharmonic and National Symphony Orchestra. An ECHO "Rising Star" and alumna of Lincoln Center Chamber Music Society II, she has performed as recitalist and chamber musician in many of the world's top concert halls and festivals. Her highly praised debut recording was released on EMI classics and she was the recipient of an Avery Fisher Career Grant.

Performing in the master class will be Philip Kettler and Emilia McManus, high school students of Drew Owen at the Washington Conservatory, and Alex Glaubitz, a student of David Hardy at the Peabody Institute of the John Hopkins University. They will perform movements of concertos by Lalo, Elgar, and Dvorak.
