Spencertown, New York–Spencertown Academy Arts Center presents “Winterlude: Classical Sunday with Bob Logan and Julian Müller” on January 21 at 3:00pm at the Academy’s Blanche Grubin Auditorium. The program will feature works for piano and cello by Haydn, Bartok, Schumann, Beethoven, and Paradis. General admission tickets ($25 public, $20 Academy members, $10 for students ) are available via www.spencertownacademy.org.
“What a wonderful way to celebrate winter!” says event producer Craig Bender. “Bob Logan and Julian Müller are both exceptional musicians. This Sunday afternoon concert of classics will be a beautiful start to the new year.”
Pianist and composer Logan holds a master’s degree from the New England Conservatory, studying under Meng-Chieh Liu. In early 2020, he joined the Eurythmy Spring Valley Ensemble on their European tour with performances in England, Scotland, Germany, and Switzerland. He was a Tanglewood Music Center Fellow and has won prizes in the NEC Piano Honors Competition, the Chicago College of Performing Arts Concerto Competition, and the UW-Madison Beethoven Competition. He currently runs a piano teaching studio in Chatham, NY.
Cellist Müller is passionate about engaging communities through chamber music, recitals, interactive performance, and collaboration with composers. He soloed with the Louisville Orchestra and was hailed as “haunting and mesmerizing” by USA Today. He has collaborated with Sergei Babayan, Simone Dinnerstein, Matt Haimovitz, members of the Cleveland Orchestra and Quartet, among others, and performs with Orchestra of St. Luke’s, the Berkshire Symphony, Caroga Arts Ensemble, the Metropolis Ensemble, and Williams Chamber Players. He is the Artist Associate in Cello at Williams College.
