Join us for a Jacobsen Series faculty recital featuring Alistair MacRae, cello, performing global masterworks for solo cello.
 

Cellist ALISTAIR MACRAE is the Cordelia Wikarski-Miedel Artist in Residence at University of Puget Sound School of Music and the cellist of the Puget Sound Piano Trio. He has appeared as a soloist, chamber musician, and orchestral principal throughout North America and in Europe, Asia, South America, and the Middle East. He serves as principal cello for both the Princeton Symphony Orchestra and Symphony Tacoma; performs with his wife, soprano Allison Pohl, in the voice and cello duo Soprello; and is a member of the Artist Faculty at the Brevard Music Center. 

His playing has been praised for its "rich sound and lyrical phrasing" (Palm Beach Daily News) and his performances have been featured in radio broadcasts across the United States on WQXR, WWFM, WDAV, WCQS, KING FM, and Vermont Public Radio. Alistair MacRae full bio
