Internationally renowned cellist Steven Doane gives a recital of music for solo cello, including Bach’s Cello Suite No. 5 in C, John Tavener’s Threnos and Benjamin Britten’s Cello Suite No. 3, Op. 87. 

Steven Doane is known around the world as a soloist, recitalist, chamber musician, recording artist, and pedagogue, appearing at festivals and on concert series throughout the United States and overseas.

Doane and Eastman pianist Barry Snyder have made a series of recordings for the Bridge label, including the complete music of Gabriel Faure for cello and piano. This recording was awarded the Diapason D’or in France, and has been broadcast throughout the US and Canada, over the BBC in England, and throughout Europe. New releases on Bridge include the Rachmaninoff Sonata with Barry Snyder (May 2012) and Britten Solo Suites (due for release in 2013).

Doane is currently Professor of Cello at the Eastman School of Music, and holds the title of “visiting professor” at the Royal Academy of Music, London, where he has done several residencies.

This performance has been generously funded by the Barbara K. Steppel Memorial Faculty Fellowship in Cello.
