JOSEPH JOHNSON  
   
Principal cellist of the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra and principal cellist-designate of the Toronto Symphony Orchestra (2010-2011 season), Joseph Johnson is one of the most exciting solo artists of his generation. Since 1997 he has nurtured a special relationship with Russian culture and people, a relationship that was spawned during his tgour with the American Russian Youth Orchestra. Johnson performs on a 1747 Juan Guillami cello.

BROADWAY!    

Margaret Carlson, Soprano

 
Often compared to Julie Andrews and Maureen McGovern, Margaret Carlson is an exciting new voice in the contemporary music. Her eclectic career has taken her from life "on the road" with the band, Summer, to ten years as a stay-at-home mom. Re-establishing her music career in 1986, Carlson's second CD, This Christmas...my favorite things, received a Grammy nomination in the Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album category. Margaret Carlson

MENDELSSOHN

Ilya Kaler, violin

Described as a "magician, bewitching our ears," Russian-born violinist Ilya Kaler is the only violinist to have won gold medals at the Tchaikovsky (1986), Sibelius (1985), and Paganini (1981) Competitions. Currently professor of violin at DePaul University School of Music (Chicago, IL), he performs on a 1785 "Sennhauser" Giuseppe Guarnerius del Gesu violin on loan from the Stradivari Society of Chicago.
