Music Mondays at The SLC: Constantine Finehouse (piano) and Tyler James (cello)
MONDAY FEBRUARY 16TH AT 2PM IN THE NORDIC HALL
For our first concert of 2026, on Monday February 16th, we are thrilled to present a romantic program of Beethoven and Franck. Newton native Constantine Finehouse is a virtuoso pianist who has performed extensively in the U.S. and abroad, including Salzburg, Trieste, London, Ghent, Moscow, St. Petersburg and Odessa, and recorded several highly acclaimed violin-piano and cello-piano albums with Daniel Kurganov, Sebastian Baverstam, and others. Boston area cellist Tyler Michael James has been praised as a passionate musician with a “soulful, lyrical tone” and a “phenomenal color palette”, who has performed with A Far Cry, Castle of Our Skins, Rockport Music, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, 92nd Street Y, and Cape Cod’s Red Door Chamber Music, among others. Together Mr. James and Mr. Finehouse will perform Beethoven’s Cello Sonata in D Major, Op.102 No. 2 by Ludwig Van Beethoven and Franck’s Sonata for Cello and Piano in A Major.
We hope to see many of you in person but we will also livestream for those who can only join online, at our 2026 Music Mondays link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/81963239351…
