Sakura Cello Quintet

Five sensational cellists in one dazzling ensemble

A unique and versatile cello quintet, hailed as “brilliant” and “superb” by Mark Swed in the Los Angeles Times, the SAKURA Cello Quintet is built on the artistry and virtuosity of its members: Stella Cho, Michael Kaufman, Benjamin Lash, Yoshika Masuda, and Peter Myers. Playing by memory, this group has a very expressive sonority and an eclectic mix of repertoire from classical to modern, from Dowland and Boccherini to Brahms to Bernstein and Star Wars. This concert is presented in collaboration with the Bay Area Music Consortium.
