Concert series presents violin duoCaledon Chamber Concerts will present the next performance in the series March 19 at 8 p.m. The featured artists will be two violinists from the Cecilia String Quartet. Min-Jeong Koh and Sarah Nematallah will play works by J. S. Bach, Jean-Marie Leclair, Béla Bartók and Sergei Prokfiev. Koh holds a Doctoral of Music Degree from the University of Toronto where she researched the proliferation of Canadian string quartets. In addition, she has pursued post-doctoral studies with Donald Weilerstein, made possible by the Canada Council for the Arts. Prior to joining the Cecilia String Quartet, Koh was the second prize winner of the 2006 Eckhardt-Gramatté Competition, where she was also awarded the Prize for Best Performance of the Commissioned Piece. Through the generosity of a private benefactor, Koh performs exclusively on a ca. 1767 Loannes Guadgnini violin. Nematallah is a founding member of the Cecilia String Quartet. Apart from the CSQ, she has performed internationally as an orchestral and chamber musician for organizations such as the Banff Summer Arts Festival, and has appeared as soloist in Canada and Spain. Committed to education, Nematallah recently completed a Masters Degree in Music Education at the University of Toronto, where she researched topics related to music philosophy and cognition, especially connections between music and language. Nematallah plays on the 1851 Jean Baptiste Vuillaume violin on loan from an anonymous donor. The concert will be at St. James Church, Caledon East. Tickets are $30 for adults, $15 for students 16 years and younger, and may be purchased at BookLore, Forster's Book Garden and Howard the Butcher. Tickets will also be available at the door.
