Highlights of recent performances and exciting projects include recitals with pianist Orli Shaham at the Kauffman Music Center’s Musical Storefront series (NYC), BargeMusic (NYC), and for Orchestra Lumos’ Small Spaces in New Canaan, CT. Buck’s summer concerts have taken her to Telluride’s Chamber Music Festival (CO), Washington Friends of Music Summer Festival (CO), Sands Point: Four Seasons of Music (NYC) and Music off the Hook Arts Music Festival (CO). Other notable news includes the honor of having received two commissions: John Harbison’s DeBut for solo violin, and Fantasia on Beethoven’s Spring Sonata for violin and piano by Bruce Adolphe. For seventeen years, Buck was a member of the critically acclaimed Lark Quartet (2002-2019). The quartet was especially recognized for its extensive commissioning and boundary-pushing programming. They were one of the first quartets to offer programs featuring string quartet plus percussion, clarinet, voice, or piano, and recorded works by American composers such as John Harbison, Jennifer Higdon, Aaron J. Kernis, Daniel Bernard Romain (DBR), and Paul Moravec; many of which are included in their extensive discography found on Endeavor, Koch, Arabesque, and Bridge Record labels. Buck has also recorded for the motion picture and television industry, including featured violin solos that helped breathe life back into the re-mastered American Silent Film classic, The Scarlet Letter (Turner Classic Movies). Her national television debut came by way of a featured guest spot on the Family Channel’s It Takes Two, hosted by Dick Clark. One of the most sought-after soloists and chamber music collaborators of his generation, Orion Weiss is widely regarded as a “brilliant pianist” (The New York Times) with “powerful technique and exceptional insight” (The Washington Post). With a warmth to his playing that outwardly reflects his engaging personality, Weiss has dazzled audiences with his passionate, lush sound and performed with dozens of orchestras in North America including the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Boston Symphony Orchestra, Los Angeles Philharmonic, and New York Philharmonic.
