EDMONDS — The Cascade Symphony Orchestra’s concert Monday features two leading musicians from the Seattle Symphony.
Cellist Eric Han and violinist Mae Lin will perform Johannes Brahms’ Double Concerto for Violin and Cello in A minor, Op. 102 during the symphony’s Nordic Passion concert March 12 at the Edmonds Center for the Arts. The evening’s musical pieces will also include Gioachino Rossini’s The Journey to Reims Overture and Jean Sibelius’ Symphony No. 1 in E minor, Op. 39.
Lin grew up in Bellevue and studied at Juilliard School in New York. She joined the Seattle Symphony’s second violin section in 2008 and moved to the first violin section in 2014.
Han is a Korean-born Canadian cellist who made his concerto debut with the Toronto Symphony Orchestra when he was 14 years old. He’s received many accolades in Canada and the United States, including the Tom Thomas Scholarship and the 2012 Sylva Gelber Award.
Another award-winning musician is performing just down the street from the symphony next week.
