Music of J.S. Bach, Dmitri Shostakovich, Caroline Shaw, and Johannes Brahms.
Guided by a conviction that music can be a medium for community, healing, and lasting meaning in a fluctuating world, Bethany Pietroniro frequently joins musical colleagues in the creation of programs that expand the traditional concert experience. She performed the world premiere of Bebop Riddle II for cello and piano by American composer Augusta Read Thomas at Tanglewood, and has made music with the Bach Institute at Emmanuel Music, and The Orchestra Now. A recent program on Seattle’s Sound Salon series brought together repertoire for voice, flute, cello, and piano by Maurice Ravel, Nadia and Lili Boulanger, and Robert and Clara Schumann under the theme of healing through music. In summer 2026, Bethany joined Hogfish Regenerative Arts in Portland, Maine as a pianist in residence for the premiere of Wholly Unwinding: a piece that explores themes of disability and embodiment through the composer’s lived experience.
