About the Artists
|
|
The Schroeder Umansky Duo is a New York based ensemble formed in 2014. Amy Schroeder, a founding member and violinist in the internationally renowned, Grammy Award winning, Attacca Quartet and Felix Umansky, cellist of the Grammy Award winning Harlem Quartet came together to form this long-anticipated duo shortly before being married. With a love for the standards, the Duo created its first album by arranging some of its favorite tunes, which make regular appearances on concerts alongside more typically played duo repertoire. The Duo is also fiercely dedicated to new music including original compositions by its members. They are loyal and devoted teachers who will be returning faculty this summer at the Apple Hill Chamber Music Seminar. Active collaborators, the Duo has performed with members of the Apple Hill String Quartet, clarinetist Wonkak Kim, and pianists Yalin Chi, Grace Eunhye Choi, and Irina Nuzova.
