About Baron Fenwick

At twenty-five years old, Baron Fenwick has performed throughout the United States. He has performed as a soloist with the Flint Symphony Orchestra, the Western Piedmont Symphony, the Chamber Orchestra of Southern Maryland, the South Shore Symphony, the Hudson Valley Philharmonic, the Charlotte Symphony Orchestra, the South Carolina Philharmonic, the Mannes Orchestra, and the Wintergreen Festival Orchestra, among others. His performance with conductor Erin Freeman and the South Carolina Philharmonic was called “brilliant” by David Lowry of the Columbia Free-Times. “His driving rhythm, virtuosic technique, musical treatment and careful attention to the ensemble were all stunning. Put two or three more years on this young man, and we might well have a major star.”

About Elena Ariza

Cellist Elena Ariza is rapidly establishing herself as one of today’s most creative and community-driven artists. Elena was a featured cellist on Yo-Yo Ma’s groundbreaking Music Art Life project and on NPR’s From the Top. An avid chamber musician, she has collaborated with luminaries such as Christopher O’Riley, Itzhak Perlman, Steve Tenenbom, and Vivian Weilerstein. Passionate about community activism, she has organized fundraiser concerts for the 2011 Japanese tsunami, the 2021 Haitian earthquake, and most recently, for those affected by the Russian war in Ukraine. Elena is currently a C.V. Starr Doctoral Fellow at Juilliard under Joel Krosnick and Astrid Schween.
