About Andrew Pearce
Andrew Pearce, Cellist and Series Founder, earned his degree at University of Southern California in the class of legendary cellist Lynn Harrell. He has performed solos with the Los Angeles and New York Philharmonics, Boston Pops, Utah Symphony and Polish Chamber Orchestra, among many others. During his 20 years playing cello in orchestra, he performed in many of the great halls of Europe and Asia, and also played lots of trios with his group, the Boston Trio, as well as other groups performing across Canada and New England. At the ripe age of 44, Andrew traded a tenured job in one America’s top five orchestras, the Boston Symphony, for the risk and thrill of a future in real estate in Austin, TX. And though building and developing is an adventure all its own, he never lost his passion for chamber music. Nowadays, Andrew divides his time between family, real estate, and living life to the fullest while sharing his love for music as cellist and Artistic Director of the new Lakeway Masterpiece Concert Series.
About Sari Pearce
Sari Pearce, violinist and Masterpiece Concert Series Founder, started her violin lessons at age 3, after given a choice of either start going to a preschool, where her 2 older sisters came home
crying every day, or stay home and start taking violin lessons. It paid off and she has been playing ever since! After studying with a well-known pedagogue Gwen Thompson in Vancouver BC Canada, who populated the city with exceptional violinists, Sari went on to study with Eudice Shapiro at the University of Southern California, earning her BM in Performance, and where she met her husband/partner Andrew. She went on to play with the Boston Pops, Pasadena Chamber Orchestra, CBC Radio Orchestra, and Vancouver Opera Orchestra. Currently, she’s an award winning full-time broker associate at Christie’s International Real Estate as an inaugural agent to open its branch in Austin, TX. When she’s not selling homes and playing her violin with her husband of 34+ years, she enjoys doing handstands and other high intensity training at Elite Core Pilates Studio several times a week, taking care of her flock of hens for fresh eggs, and volunteering at several organizations. She’s excited to be back performing chamber music again.
