As duo partners for 17 years, violinist Sara Su Jones and pianist Tatyana Stepanova have given recitals at the Harvard Club of New York as well as in Reykjavik, Iceland; Washington, DC; and Andover, Massachusetts. The acclaimed duo has appeared multiple times on “Live from WFMT,” and their Chicago-area performances also include the Driehaus Museum’s Third Wednesday concert series, the Noonday Concert Series at Fourth Presbyterian Church, and sold-out recitals at Glessner House, the Cliff Dwellers Club, and Newberry Library. Their eclectic, creative programs often highlight striking but little-known works, particularly those by women composers, and Sara Su’s insightful commentary and storytelling enliven the duo’s performances.
