Violinist and cellist set preview appearance at Sussex Academy Feb. 10

Two charismatic musicians will appear at 7 p.m., Friday, Feb. 10, at Sussex Academy in Georgetown. Graduates of the Curtis Institute of Music and close colleagues, violinist Elena Urioste and cellist Nick Canellakis will provide insights, play musical examples and take audience questions. Seating for this Musical Perspectives appearance is on a first-come basis.

Urioste, who grew up in Philadelphia, soloed with the Philadelphia Orchestra at the age of 13 and since then has made debuts with major orchestras throughout the United States and Europe, wowing audiences with her tone, lyricism and captivating stage presence. Her recital engagements have included such distinguished venues as Carnegie Hall's Weill Recital Hall and Wigmore Hall in London. Among her many chamber music credits is performing as part of the Brown-Urioste-Canellakis piano trio.

Canellakis has become one of the most in-demand and innovative cellists of his generation. He is an artist of The Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center where he regularly performs and is a winner of Lincoln Center's CMS Two international auditions. A guest at many of the world's leading music festivals, he is also co-artistic director of the Sedona Winter MusicFest in Arizona.

They will perform for Coastal Concerts at 2 p.m, Saturday, Feb. 11, in Lewes. For more information, go to www.coastalconcerts.org.
