Aldo Parisot and the Grammy-nominated Yale Cellos perform music for cello ensemble

The Yale Cellos

The Yale School of music celebrates Professor Aldo Parisot's fifty years on the faculty with a concert featuring the Yale Cellos on Monday, April 20 at 8:00 p.m. in Morse Recital Hall in Sprague Hall (470 College St, New Haven). In his astonishing career, Aldo Parisot has been a star soloist, renowned chamber player, and perhaps the most beloved cello teacher of his time. The concert will showcase the famed Yale Cellos, founded by Parisot in 1983, whose 20 or so members belong to the select group of international young artists invited to study with him at Yale. Joining the ensemble are pianist Elizabeth Parisot and soprano Hyunah Yu.

The program opens with Bachianas Brasileiras No. 1 for cello ensemble and No. 5 for cellos and soprano by Heitor Villa-Lobos, a close friend of Mr. Parisot's. Following the Villa-Lobos is a performance of Rapturedux by Christopher Rouse, which Mr. Parisot famously conducted at the Manchester International Cello Festival with an ensemble of 147 cellists in 2001, and which he premiered in New York with the Yale Cellos in 2003. The concerts also include the New York premieres of two works by jazz great Dave Brubeck, Elegy and The Desert and the Parched Land as well as the New York premiere of Simões by Ezra Laderman (Simões being, not coincidentally, Mr. Parisot's middle name), and David Popper's Requiem in the New York premiere of the arrangement for 20 cellos and piano.
