Berlin, Rochester, and Barcelona
Alisa Weilerstein opens her fall season with two Berlin performances of Grawemeyer Award winner Unsuk Chin’s Cello Concerto – at the Staatsoper Unter den Linden and in the Berliner Philharmonie as part of Musikfest Berlin – under the baton of her husband, Rafael Payare (Sep 7 & 8).
After Berlin, Weilerstein is set to perform Elgar’s Cello Concerto for the opening of the Rochester Philharmonic’s centennial season under Music Director Andreas Delfs (Sep 21 & 23). She will then join the Barcelona Symphony (Sep 29–Oct 1) for Prokofiev’s Sinfonia concertante in E minor under the baton of Ludovic Morlot.
