Lyon-Sasaki Duo
Cellist Mitchell Lyon and pianist Mika Sasaki met in 2017 at the Charles Ives Chamber Music Intensive in Danbury, C.T., where they both taught and performed as Artist Faculty. They found themselves equally passionate about chamber music, community engagement, and education, and have since become close collaborators on a variety of projects, from chamber music performances of traditional, contemporary, and original repertoire for cello and piano, to educational workshops.
