Longtime friends and collaborators, violinist Hanna Hurwitz and pianist Daniel Pesca are co-directors and performing members of the Zohn Collective, a flexible new music chamber ensemble founded in 2017. Both Hanna and Daniel perform in Chicago frequently and can be seen onstage with Ensemble Dal Niente and the Grossman Ensemble. They met at Aspen where they both held fellowships, and deepened their friendship during their several years of overlap in the doctoral program at the Eastman School of Music. Hanna is now an assistant professor at Denison University, and Daniel is assistant professor at University of Maryland Baltimore County.
