TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) -- Winter weather that's battering the east coast is cancelling an Opening Nights performance.
World-renowned cellist Maya Beiser, who has graced the state at Carnegie Hall, was scheduled to perform in the Capital City on Monday and Tuesday.
But Beiser is unable to get to Tallahassee because of the winter storm that's hitting the east coast.
Organizers tell us they are working to reschedule her shows for later in the spring.
Ticket holders will be notified when new dates are confirmed. Tickets will be transferable.
Concerned patrons should email openingnights@fsu.edu or call (850) 644-7670. For more information, call (850) 644-7670 or click here.
Besier was raised in the Galilee Mountains in Israel. She came to the United States to attend school at Yale University.
She's made a name for herself by reinventing classic cello performances in new, modern and often unexpected ways.
"Maya Beiser defies categories; passionately forging a career path through uncharted territories, she has captivated audiences worldwide with her virtuosity, eclectic repertoire, and relentless quest to redefine her instrument’s boundaries," said Opening Nights organizers.
She has eight solo albums under her belt, plus several other studio recordings and film collaborations.
Beiser has been a featured performer on the world’s most prestigious stages – including Lincoln Center, Carnegie Hall and the Kennedy Center. She's also a founding member of the Bang on a Can All-Stars.
