Witness the exceptional talents of RCM alumni Luka Coetzee and Jon Kimura Parker as they perform a varied selection of works from Gershwin’s Three Preludes to cello sonatas by Brahms and Rachmaninov, and beyond.

“Tonally, technically, and musically superb,” Canadian cellist Luka Coetzee “plays sublimely, with an interpretative grasp [and]phenomenal musicianship [that]should on no account be missed,” said Fanfare Magazine. Since her professional debut at age 11, Luka has appeared as soloist with orchestras worldwide including the Helsinki Philharmonic, Lahti Symphony, Cape Town Philharmonic, Stuttgart Chamber, and more. At the age of one, Luka had her first cello lesson with Christine Bootland. Luka also started playing piano at the age of three and finished the Royal Conservatory of Music ARCT piano exam with First Class Honours under the instruction of Derek Chiu.

Known for his passionate artistry and engaging stage presence, Canadian pianist (and RCM alumnus) Jon Kimura Parker is “insightful, energetic” (The New York Times), with “absolutely top-notch music-making, as fine as one could ever expect to hear” (Washington Post). A veteran of the international concert stage, he has performed regularly in the Berlin Philharmonie, Carnegie Hall, London’s South Bank, the Sydney Opera House, and the Beijing Concert Hall.

Please join us! This concert is preceded by a short performance by talented students of The Royal Conservatory. Prelude Recital starts at 7:00pm.
