ABOUT THE ARTISTS
Nadja Salerno-Sonnenberg stands out in the field of classical music. Individual, passionate and powerful, a risk-taking persona and energetic presence are her trademarks. Nadja is recognized as one of the world’s pre-eminent violinists and has collaborated with such artists as Mandy Patinkin, Joe Jackson, Judy Blazer, Janice Siegel, the Assad brothers, Mark O’Connor and Roger Kellaway. Nadja has performed with many of the world’s greatest conductors and orchestras and she has also played at the White House in a command performance for the Arts and Humanities Awards.
Anne-Marie McDermottmade her Carnegie Hall debut at the age of just twelve years old — at the Manhattan School of Music, she then studied with Daimo Carra, Constance Keene and John Browning. New York’s prestigious and fiercely critical artistic ambience has also been the scene of great success for Anne-Marie McDermott as a recitalist and chamber music player. The virtuosity, sparkle, sensitivity and imagination in her playing distinguish her as one of the very most exciting young pianists of our time.
