Past 2023-2024 Performers
March 3, 2024 — Francesca Anderegg
Lauded for her “exceptional performances” and “fiery interpretation,” violinist Francesca Anderegg delivers elegant and impassioned accounts of contemporary and classical music. She has collaborated with the leading musicians of the concert stage, including Itzhak Perlman, Pierre Boulez, and the musicians of the Ensemble Intercontemporain. She had her Carnegie Hall debut in 2008, and has appeared in all of New York’s major venues. She regularly performs with the Minnesota Orchestra, and throughout the United States and South America as a soloist and chamber musician.
February 4, 2024 — Akropolis Reed Quintet
Celebrating their 15th year as “a sonically daring ensemble who specializes in performing new works with charisma and integrity” (BBC Music Magazine), Akropolis has “taken the chamber music world by storm” (Fanfare). As the first reed quintet to twice grace the Billboard Charts (2021, 2022), the untamed band of 5 reed players and entrepreneurs are united by a shared passion: to make music that sparks joy and wonder.
January 7, 2024 — Tallā Rouge
Tallā Rouge, meaning ‘the Red-Gold’ in Farsi and French, was established by the fiery Persian-American & Cajun-American violists, Aria Cheregosha & Lauren Spaulding under the mentorship of Roger Tapping at The Juilliard School. Inspired by their unique musical pasts, Tallā Rouge performs music that lives at the intersection between Jazz, Folk, Pop, Middle-Eastern, and Western Classical traditions.
November 5, 2023 — Cavatina Duo
Eugenia Moliner, flute (Spain) and Denis Azabagic, guitar (Bosnia) has become one of the most impressive combinations of its kind in the world. The first guitar and flute duo to be featured on the covers of both Classical Guitar Magazine (UK) and the cover of Flute Talk (USA), the husband-and-wife Cavatina Duo breaks convention with their combination of instruments.

Praised for its “insightful, committed and masterful performances” (Classics Today 10/10) and “fierce eloquence” (London Times), the Black Oak Ensemble is one of the most innovative and exciting chamber ensembles on the international stage.
