Garnet Rogers

 

Barely out of high school, Garnet Rogers was on the road as a full-time working musician with his older brother Stan. Together they formed one of the most influential acts in North American folk music.

Since then, Garnet Rogers has established himself as “one of the major talents of our time and a “charismatic performer and singer” (Boston Globe). Garnet is a man with a powerful physical presence and a voice to match. With his “smooth, dark baritone” (Washington Post), his incredible range, and his thoughtful, dramatic phrasing, Garnet is widely considered by fans and critics alike to be one of the finest singers anywhere. As memorable as his songs, his over-the-top humor and lightning-quick wit move his audience from tears to laughter and back again

Celebrity Series of Boston presents Tony Siqi Yun, piano
 
 

A Groton Hill exclusive!

Still in his early 20s and only two years out of Juilliard, Canadian pianist Tony Siqi Yun is already making waves as a soloist and recitalist. Praised for his refinement, muscular sound, and intimate expressivity, Yun has “an emergent big personality” (Philadelphia Inquirer) that makes him a pianist you’ll want to experience firsthand.

Yun’s debut program spans lyrical Bach/Busoni, Beethoven's radiant "Waldstein" Sonata, Berio's crystalline Wasserklavier, Liszt's virtuosic Réminiscences de Norma, and Brahms' epic Piano Sonata No. 3. It's a thrilling journey through color, clarity, and intensity—perfectly suited to showcase the express range of this rising star.

A compelling introduction to a must-hear young artist, the program promises to showcase the poetry and power that set Tony Siqi Yun apart on the global stage.
