The Fairmount String Trio made up of Timothy Jones on violin, Catherine Consiglio on viola, and Leonid Shakaev on cello will perform at the Birger Sandzén Memorial Gallery on Saturday, March 8, at 2:00pm.

Dr. Timothy Jones is an artist, teacher, and performer with roots in Kansas and branches across the Americas. He currently serves as Associate Concertmaster of the Wichita Symphony Orchestra and Assistant Professor of Violin at Wichita State University.

Catherine Consiglio has been a Professor of Viola at Wichita State University and Principal Viola in the Wichita Symphony since 1989. She was recently awarded the Kansas Music Educators Hall of Fame Lifetime Achievement award in February 2024.

Dr. Leonid Shukaev is a cellist who belongs to the great Russian cello tradition. As a student of the St. Petersburg Conservatory, with doctorate and master’s degrees, he was fortunate to study with Emanuel Fishmann, the teacher of many prominent cellists now playing in leading Russian and European orchestras.

The Birger Sandzén Memorial Gallery is located at 401 N. First Street. There is no charge for the concert, however, donations are appreciated.
