“Perfect intonation, style, and total involvement,” raved New York Concert Review upon experiencing the artistry of Sphinx Competition winner Sterling Elliott. Experience it yourself as Sterling Elliott performs the sparkling Cello Concerto in D of Haydn. Plus, Chia-Hsuan Lin conducts music by two 20th
century giants that glance backwards to earlier masters. Prokofiev’s “Classical Symphony” models itself on Mozart. Stravinsky’s delightful “Pulcinella” pays homage to Baroque giant Giovanni Pergolesi.
