AntonÃn Dvořák's Cello Concerto is one for the record books: most loved, most performed, most recorded. Expect plenty of sizzle when it is performed by one of Europe's hottest young cellists in her American orchestra debut.
Dutch cellist Quirine Viersen is among the leaders of Europe's next generation of musical personalities. She makes her American orchestral debut in successive concerts with the Oregon Symphony this spring, performing Antonin Dvořák's Cello Concerto May 8-10 and then staying on to perform as cello soloist in the Beethoven Triple Concerto at the opening concert of Beethoven Festival Weekend May 15.
