Lark, Roman, and Meyer

Camp Concert Hall, University of Richmond

Early in his career, Meyer composed the series of three string trios, which he premiered with Daniel Phillips and Carter Brey at the Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival. These pieces set the tone for his next four decades, but only one was partially recorded. Meyer says that upon meeting Tessa and Joshua, he saw an opportunity to partner with them and “document this personal milestone”. At this concert, you will hear two of those string trios, a new one intended to “complete the thought,” and a classic Bach sonata.

Stanford Residency

Stanford University

Immunity is an intimate musical exploration of cellist Joshua Roman’s life-altering, inspiring experience of ongoing long COVID, with music ranging from J. S. Bach to George Crumb to Caroline Shaw, as well as Roman’s own compositions. The program combines performance and storytelling into an emotional journey, as the cellist confronts the impact of the illness and the limitations that nearly ended his career, before progressing through a period of doubt, struggle, refocus, and renewal, culminating in a profound acceptance of self and a deeper connection to what's most important in life.
