BEETHOVEN Complete Cello Sonatas

Cellist SHI Xin, a rare Chinese virtuoso dedicated to chamber music repertoire, boasts elite training from Philadelphia's Curtis Institute of Music and Berlin's Hanns Eisler School of Music under mentorship of European and American chamber masters. Pianist LIU Yuntian, the first piano doctorate recipient from Beijing's Central Conservatory of Music, holds record-breaking achievements as the highest-ranked Chinese contestant in prestigious international competitions.

In their groundbreaking collaboration, this prodigious duo will perform Beethoven’s complete cycle of five cello sonatas in a single concert – a rare feat that creates a compressed timeline for experiencing the composer’s stylistic metamorphosis from Classical restraint to Romantic grandeur. This architectural programming transforms the recital into an immersive journey through Beethoven’s artistic evolution, offering audiences a scholar’s depth wrapped in theatrical intensity.
