SARASOTA — Due to unforeseen circumstances, The Perlman Music Program/Suncoast’s PMP Alumni: At Home virtual recital featuring the Ariel Quartet, originally scheduled to be released on Thursday, Jan. 21, has been postponed.

A new date will be announced soon.

In its place, Perlman Suncoast will release a free virtual recital featuring PMP alumna and cellist Yi Qun Xu.

Praised for displaying “great poise and masterful technique” and possessing “an amazing rich tone,” by The Day, cellist Yi Qun Xu is the Prima Finalist of 2019 Internationals Cello Competition Benedetto Mazzacurati. She has performed at the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center and Marlboro Music Festival, and has collaborated with Itzhak Perlman and members of the Cleveland, Juilliard, and Tokyo Quartets.

She received honors including the 2018 Sanders-Juilliard-Tel Aviv Museum Prize. She is a C.V. Starr Doctoral Fellow at The Juilliard School under the tutelage of Joel Krosnick. Yi Qun is the artistic director of Noree Chamber Soloists.
