We received countless requests to bring this incredible cellist back to Gainesville after his spellbinding encore performance with the Moscow State Symphony in 2017. Finally, the stars have aligned.

Winner of the First Prize and Gold Medal in Cello at the 2011 XIV International Tchaikovsky Competition at the age of 22, Narek Hakhnazaryan has performed with major orchestras across the globe and established himself internationally as one of the finest cellists of his generation. Narek will be joined by frequent collaborator Noreen Polera, a pianist who ranks among the most highly-regarded chamber artists performing today.
