Rafael Popper-Keizer's approach to playing the cello has earned him unqualified praise from such noteworthy practitioners as Mstislav Rostropovich, Joel Krosnick, Gary Hoffman, and Jules Eskin. Although he maintains an active presence in the Boston contemporary music scene, having recently worked closely with composers Leon Kirchner, Arthur Berger, George Rochberg, and Gunther Schuller, Mr. Popper-Keizer is an avid proponent of early music, in which capacity he has performed frequently with harpsichordist John Gibbons. Mr. Popper-Keizer has been featured as a solist throughout the United States, including recitals in New England Conservatory's Jordan Hall; the Phillips Collection in Washington, D.C.; and as a guest artist on the faculty concert series at Grinnell College. As a chamber musician, Mr. Popper-Keizer has appeared nationwide in various capacities, including performances in the Rockport Chamber Music Festival in Massachusetts and the International Musical Arts Institute in Maine. Locally, Mr. Popper-Keizer has concertized with many of Boston's most esteemed chamber musicians, including members of the Borromeo String Quartet, the Museum of Fine Arts Trio, and the Boston Symphony Orchestra; as well as a recent appearance with Lucia Lin and Heng-Jin Park Ellsworth of the Boston Trio. Upcoming engagements this year include appearances as soloist in the Dvorak Concerto, with the University Orchestra of Santa Cruz; and in the Beethoven Triple Concerto, with the Indian Hill Symphony in Massachusetts. Mr. Popper-Keizer is also currently engaged in the production of a compact disc of cello sonatas by Grieg and Franck to be released by Centaur Records.
