Cellist David Finckel and pianist Wu Han, honored as Musical America’s Musicians of the Year, stand among today’s most distinguished figures in classical music, encompassing world-class performances, acclaimed recordings, and visionary artistic direction (Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, etc.). From the stages of New York to premier venues across North America, Europe, and Asia, they have captivated audiences globally. Their repertoire spans the classical canon for cello and piano, but includes contemporary and commissioned works.
