Jane Coop and Henry Shapard - Nelson Overture Concerts Society Monday, May 12, 2025 at 7:30 PM PDT

Adults: $29 + fee 18 and Under: Free

Join us for a memorable evening of chamber music with two of Canada's most exceptional and highly acclaimed musicians: pianist Jane Coop and VSO principal cellist, Henry Shapard.

“It is difficult to pinpoint what makes this pianist so expressive, for in her playing everything works together: technique, sense of style, tempo, sensitivity of touch, phrasing and dynamic shading. Coop has that extra something that lets a pianist become a poet.” - THE GAZETTE, Montreal

“There’s a musical instinctiveness in [Shapard’s] playing, which is breathtaking because every time he plays, it sounds like he’s playing it for the first time — there’s that wonderful spontaneity.” - William Boughton, conductor of the Yale Symphony Orchestra
