The husband and wife duo of cellist David Finckel and pianist Wu Han has had a singular impact on American concert music for more than a quarter century, with the artists recognized as elite performers, committed educators, and respected impresarios. This all-Russian program features Rachmaninoff’s rhapsodic Cello Sonata along with Prokofiev’s mercurial Cello Sonata and Myaskovsky’s Second Cello Sonata, which was inspired by a particularly memorable performance of the Prokofiev work by Finckel’s one-time teacher, the great Mstislav Rostropovich.
