A unique and versatile cello quintet, hailed as brilliant and superb by Mark Swed in the Los Angeles Times, SAKURA is built on the artistry and virtuosity of its members: Michael Kaufman, Benjamin Lash, Gabriel Martins, Yoshika Masuda,and Peter Myers. Drawing from the rich heritage of a repertoire that spans eight centuries, eclectic and unexpected programs are constructed around conceptual threads, with an overarching commitment to opening new vistas of beauty and expression by showcasing the great warmth and scope offered by the sound of five cellos.

The Mojave Trio dedicated to presenting a wide variety of classical music from the standard repertoire of the 18th-19th centuries to new works of our time will offer a dynamic program of music by Schumann, Shostakovich and others. The ensemble has performed on the "Sundays Live" radio broadcast from Bing Theater at the LA County Museum of Art, and more. Members of the trio are: Sara Parkins, violin; Maggie Parkins, cello; and Genevieve Feiwen Lee, piano.
