From smoky tango clubs in Argentina and underground jazz bars in New York to the folk traditions of rural Romania and the imagined deserts where spaceships land—no groove is too far, no style too bold for the CelloFellos.
With a touch of magic, Bryan Cheng and Leo Disselhorst turn their discoveries into captivating music for two cellos. Longtime friends and acclaimed soloists in their own right, Cheng and Disselhorst are carving out thrilling international careers. Since 2020, they’ve been making waves as a duo, lighting up major European festivals like the Verbier Festival, Heidelberg Spring, and Beethovenfest Bonn, and performing in iconic venues including the Berlin Philharmonie’s Chamber Music Hall. Now, they land on North American soil for their Canadian debut.
With relaxed grooves, heartfelt improvisation, and original compositions, the CelloFellos take audiences on a genre-defying journey—where every string tells a story. Tonight’s program spans centuries and styles, from Piazzolla and Duke Ellington to Tigran Hamasyan and beyond. Don’t miss this electrifying Chamberfest debut!
