Orion Weiss & Shai Wosner
Orion Weiss and Shai Wosner continue their longtime collaboration with a two-piano program combining an exploration of fugues spanning three centuries together with Rachmaninov’s monumental Symphonic Dances. In addition to being close friends, Orion and Shai are two of America’s leading pianists who met when they were students of Emanuel Ax at the Juilliard School. They both share a wholehearted dedication to chamber music, keen musical intellects, and an inquisitive and discerning approach to programming.
