“The pandemic caused CMNW’s summer festival, currently celebrating its 52nd season, to find virtuosos who could take over demanding pieces on short notice – like three days. Sheesh! Fortunately, the festival is stocked with top-tier talent, and the substitute violinists didn’t miss a beat. I’m talking about Oliver Neubauer, who stepped in for Jennifer Frautschi to play first violin in Josef Suk’s Piano Quartet on July 2, and CMNW co-artistic director Soovin Kim, who took first chair for Jessica Lee in Anton Arensky’s String Quartet No. 2 on July 9.”
“Suk’s Piano Quartet received a passionate, exciting performance from pianist George Li, violinist Oliver Neubauer (given the moniker “Rookie” by CMNW co-director Gloria Chien), violist Paul Neubauer (Oliver’s father, and a CMNW stalwart), and cellist Sophie Shao. The ensemble elicited the lovely, lyrical themes and exchanged numerous melodic phrases with panache.”
