Elizabeth Pitcairn and Derek Wieland Concert

Renowned American violin virtuoso Elizabeth Pitcairn and acclaimed pianist Derek Wieland are set to return to Glencairn Museum’s stage for an exceptional duo recital this September. Their previous performance in March 2024, which was their first on-stage collaboration since meeting at the Luzerne Music Center in 1989, captivated the sold-out audience.
At Luzerne, Pitcairn and Wieland first joined forces to learn a Brahms Sonata, and they were among several rising stars featured in their New York debuts at Lincoln Center’s Alice Tully Hall with the New York String Orchestra in 2000.

For their upcoming concert at Glencairn Museum, Pitcairn and Wieland will once again perform Brahms, specifically the Sonata No. 3 in D minor, alongside Mozart’s Sonata in A Major, K. 305. Additional pieces will be announced closer to the event.
Elizabeth Pitcairn, whose great uncle and aunt, Raymond and Mildred Pitcairn, once called Glencairn home, expressed her excitement about the upcoming performance, calling it "very good news." We share her enthusiasm and invite you to join us for this unforgettable musical experience.
