First prize winner of the 27th Sphinx Competition, the Brazilian violinist Nathan Amaral has earned a reputation in South America, USA and Europe for being a "versatile, charismatic violinist with a natural musical understanding" (Liza Ferschtman). Having performed as a soloist and chamber musician at venues such as the Wigmore Hall, KKL at Lucerne Festival, Mozarteum Großer Saal and Berliner Philharmonie, Nathan has been awarded 1st and special prizes in numerous national and international competitions, and in May of 2024, he performed with the Boston Symphony Orchestra.

Hailed by The Boston Musical Intelligencer as “incisive and with innate musicality,” pianist Alice Chenyang Xu brings a thoughtful and evocative approach to her performances. She has captivated audiences as a soloist and chamber musician with appearances across the United States, Canada, Italy, Germany, and China, spanning solo recitals, concerto performances, and chamber music engagements. Highlights include Lincoln Center, Chicago Symphony Hall, Chicago Cultural Center, Chicago Auditorium Theatre, Corbett Auditorium in Cincinnati, Boston Symphony Hall, Jordan Hall in Boston, Leipzig Hochschule Musik Hall, and Chiesa dell'Addolorata in Piedmont, among others, showcasing her versatility and dynamic musicianship across diverse settings.

"It was a treat to be in such intimate surroundings with the Borromeo Quartet . . Given the location within a stone’s throw of a Red Line stop, reasonably easy parking, and great acoustics, Peabody Hall and Ashmont Hill Chamber Music deserve repeat visits."
