Tessa Lark, violin, Joshua Roman, cello & Edgar Meyer, double bass at Shriver Hall Concert Series
Described by The New Yorker as the most remarkable virtuoso in the relatively unchronicled history of his instrument, seven-time Grammy winner Edgar Meyer is the only bassist to receive both the Avery Fisher Prize and a MacArthur Genius Award. Meyer’s new all-star American trio blends bluegrass roots with classical virtuosity in a program of Bach, two early Meyer trios, and a new work Meyer composed expressly for this dynamic ensemble.
