Associate Professor of Cello Eric Kutz performs the complete cello suites of J.S. Bach in one epic recital. Beloved by many cellists and classical music listeners alike, Kutz learned the first suite at the age of 12 years old. His exploration of Bach continued as the focus of his D.M.A. dissertation and Kutz has continued to delve deeper into Bach’s music ever since. Inspirational, emotive and profound, the six cello suites can be interpreted as representing the circle of life starting with the innocence of youth and moving through life and into death before concluding with resurrection. This performance will last approximately 2 hours and 45 minutes including an intermission.

Eric Kutz holds the Barbara K. Steppel Memorial Faculty Fellowship in cello.
