“it was a pleasure to hear both the ease of rapport among these three soloists, and…just how much they had to say.”
— The Boston Globe
Schubert: Piano Trio No. 1 in B-flat Major, D. 898
Tchaikovsky: Piano Trio in A Minor, Op. 50
Christian Tetzlaff, violin; Tanja Tetzlaff, cello; Kiveli Dörken, piano
Following his stupendous solo Bach performance last season, Christian Tetzlaff returns to the DACAMERA stage in an ensemble bringing him together with two of his favorite chamber music collaborators. The dynamic sibling duo of Tanja and Christian Tetzlaff is joined by pianist Kiveli Dörken, who is rapidly making a name for herself in Europe as both soloist and chamber musician. This impressive ensemble brings their remarkable talents to two chamber music masterpieces: Schubert’s majestic B-flat Trio and Tchaikovsky’s virtuosic, folk-inspired gem.
“[Christian and Tanja Tetzlaff] gave an astonishing performance – gruff, when it needed to be, vulnerable too, with natural, unforced communication between them” — The Scotsman
It is with great sadness that DACAMERA notes the death of pianist Lars Vogt, age 51, on September 5, 2022. We extend our deepest condolences to his family, friends and close musical collaborators. Christian and Tanja Tetzlaff have asked Kiveli Dörken to join them for their U.S. tour.
