American cellist Alisa Weilerstein and Israeli pianist Inon Barnatan have come together for a bracing and beautiful recital filmed at La Jolla’s Conrad Prebys Performing Arts Center. Weilerstein is a MacArthur Foundation “Genius,” widely acclaimed for the precision and passion of her playing, while Barnatan is regarded as “a true poet of the keyboard” (Evening Standard, U.K.). Celebrate Valentine’s Day with two musical masters and a program featuring Manuel De Falla’s Suite Populaire Espagnole, inspired by beloved Spanish folk songs and Rachmaninoff’s rapturous Cello Sonata.
