Guest Recital: Artu Duo

Guest Recital: Artu Duo

Wednesday, October 26, 2022 - 6:00 pm

Visiting artists Artu Duo will present a recital. Pianist Garret Ross and cellist Ruth Marshall celebrate their twelfth year as Artu Duo in the 2022-2023 season. Based in Minneapolis and Saint Paul, Mr. Ross and Ms. Marshall are on the faculty of the Saint Paul Conservatory of Music, and are the co-directors of Florestan Chamber Music. Artu Duo has completed a residency course on the Beethoven Sonatas and Variations for Cello and Piano at the Banff Centre in Canada, as well as a residency course on the chamber music of Brahms and Schumann at the Aldeburgh Festival in England. These immersive experiences sparked a deep love of the music of Beethoven, Brahms and Schumann in Artu Duo, which has been the foundational repertoire for them ever since. Artu Duo also enjoys performing contemporary and rarely-heard works, including works by historically marginalized composers, and works for mixed chamber ensemble. This event is free and open to the public.
