Bryan Cheng received the ca. 1696 “Bonjour" Stradivari cello on a 3-year loan from the Canada Council for the Arts. Bryan becomes the first cellist in the history of the Canada Council for the Arts' Musical Instrument Bank to be awarded consecutive loans of this remarkable instrument.
Bryan embarks on a two month journey of recitals and chamber music collaborations, performing at various festivals in Canada, the USA and Germany.
