BACH AND BEER!

 STEUART PINCOMBE

FEBRUARY 7 | 7:30 P.M. | REDEEMER PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH

J. S. Bach – Suites for Cello, BWV 1007-1012
A Joint Production of Arts on Alexander and Lazarus Brewing

American cellist Steuart Pincombe quickly made a name for himself as an exquisite interpreter of early and contemporary music who was keen to experiment. Steuart is regularly featured as a soloist and chamber musician in leading venues across North America and Europe, including Amsterdam’s Concertgebouw, Muziekgebouw aan ’t IJ, Concertgebouw Brugge, RADIALSYSTEM V Berlin, Bozar Brussels, Tivoli Vredenburg, Carnegie Hall, The Kennedy Center, and the Kauffman Center, but he is equally at home playing in your local cafe or brewery. His playing has garnered wide acclaim from the public and critics alike: The Philadelphia Inquirer calls him “a gorgeous player with perfect intonation, imaginative phrasing,” The Strad Magazine refers to him as a “superb soloist,” virtuoso cellist Giovanni Sollima calls Steuart “a complete artist, true virtuoso and poet, totally at ease with all languages and musical styles,” and an audience member once said “You’da asked me a week ago if I’sa gonna be here, I’da said ‘hell no’. Well I’m here - and I love this stuff [Bach]”.

In addition to his numerous chamber engagements, Mr. Pincombe has appeared as soloist with ensembles such as Solistenensemble Kaleidoskop (Denmark), Holland Baroque (Netherlans), Wallfisch Band (United Kingdom), Symphonie Atlantique (NL), Apollo’s Fire (U.S.), and the Springfield, Missouri Symphony. His concert “Bach&Beer” was selected by the Cleveland Plain Dealer as one of the “Top 10 Classical Events of the Year” and a concert in which he appeared as soloist with Rene Schiffer and Apollo's Fire was numbered in London's “5 Best Classical Music Moments of 2014” according to The Telegraph (UK). If you can't hear him live, Steuart makes regular appearances on radio and has been featured on BBC, CBC, NPO, and NPR and has recently begun recording for 7 Mountain Records in Amsterdam.

With the aim of equipping other leading artists to engage with new audiences, Steuart and his wife Michelle started the Music in Familiar Spaces Artist Collective, which is made up of some of the leading performers of our time. Steuart and Michelle recently moved to Missouri to start a small, off-grid farm.

The founding board members of Arts on Alexander (AoA) established the nonprofit organization in 2019 after decades of serving and participating in Austin’s artistic community.

AoA derives its origins from Redeemer Presbyterian Church’s Redeemer Artes, which has hosted choral and instrumental organizations, including the Texas Early Music Project, La Follia, Conspirare, Austin Baroque Orchestra, and numerous national and international musicians on its East Austin campus.

AoA, as with its predecessor Redeemer Artes, seeks to provide a place where community development and artistic and cultural development can grow together.

AoA envisions building education and outreach and youth programs into its core offerings, including opportunities to engage in the culinary, literary, and visual arts.

As Austin is a dynamic and fast-growing city, AoA provides a common thread that brings diverse communities together for the benefit of the city and its people.

The current Arts on Alexander Board of Directors includes: Dr. Ben King, Dr. George Dupere, Barry McBee, Gerson Brisola, Carolyn Ahrens, Dewayne Perry, and Brenda Simms. For information on how to support Arts on Alexander, contact us.
