Summer Music Series: Nat Chaitkin: Cello & Bach & A Boombox

In the first half of this program, we’ll explore how all music works, with Bach cello pieces and records by James Brown, PSY, and AC/DC. We’ll also discover how Bach influenced not only modern music, but also exercise science and modern parenting. 

In the second half, I’ll put the boombox away and play pieces by other composers influenced by Bach. We’ll also learn how he mastered time travel, and take a trip of our own to Spain. I’ll also share stories from my career, including White House performances, and what it was like playing for the world’s scariest cellist.
