​Praised by The Strad magazine and The New York Times, internationally renowned cellist, conductor and educator Amit Peled is acclaimed as one of the most exciting, virtuosic instrumentalists on the concert stage today. Having performed in many of the world's most prestigious venues, including Carnegie Hall and Alice Tully Hall at Lincoln Center in New York, we are incredibly lucky to be hearing his cello once again.

​Praised by critics for his lyricism, virtuosity and an intensity of performance, pianist Martin Labazevitch has appeared in many concert halls and festivals around the world. An avid chamber musician, he accompanied Amit in a concert last year for MVCMS. We are ecstatic to welcome him back!
