POTSDAM -- Acclaimed chamber group featuring David Finckel, cello, Wu Han, piano, and Philip Setzer, violin, will perform two concerts, as the first annual Cania Family Visiting Artist.

The performances will take place on Saturday, Feb. 13 at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m., in Hosmer Hall. This chamber group will present Beethoven's six piano trios over the two concerts. Patrons can attend one or both shows.

Violinist Philip Setzer joins cellist David Finckel and pianist Wu Han, co-artistic directors of Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, to form a music trio that shows off Beethoven’s prowess as a pianist with their performance of his piano trios.

Finckel and Han, Musical America’s 2012 Musicians of the Year, as well as Setzer rank among the most esteemed and influential classical musicians in the world today, CPS says.

An Austrian-themed dinner will take place at 4:30 p.m. in Thatcher Hall between the performances. The optional dinner can be reserved through the CPS Box Office for $25.

CPS tickets can be purchased through the CPS Box Office, located in the lobby of SUNY Potsdam's Performing Arts Center, by calling 267-2277, by visiting www.cpspotsdam.org, or in person at Brick & Mortar Music in downtown Potsdam.

Tickets can be bought for both shows or one.
