Megan Koch (CSMA Faculty, cello) will be joined by violinist Cindy Lin and pianist Nai-Yu Chen to present a matinee of two piano trios. The darkness of Dmitri Shostakovich’s Piano Trio No. 2, composed in 1944 in response to a tragic death, will be contrasted with the warmth of Johannes Brahms’ Piano Trio No. 1.

Music School News It is our pleasure to announce that beginning with Fall 2022, Dr. Axel Schmitt will be promoted to Distinguished Piano Faculty.

Director of Finn Center Programs Carrie Campbell said, “Axel's commitment to CSMA and its students, his performance credentials and his background in excellent teaching led us to this decision, and I can't be more thrilled to have him join this group of faculty at CSMA.” Born in Germany, Axel Schmitt received his Doctor of Musical Arts degree in piano performance at the University of California, Los Angeles in 2004. As the first prize winner of the Los Angeles Liszt Competition and the national German competition, Jugend Musiziert, he has performed as a concerto soloist, recitalist and chamber musician throughout the United States, Germany, France, Switzerland, Austria, Italy, Hungary and Russia. Reviews describe him as "a great pianistic talent" of an "amazing artistic range with a singing sound quality, tasteful power, noblesse and calmness."
