The program featured Oberlin alumni and current students: violinist Jennifer Koh, class of 1997; pianist Spencer Myers, class of 2000; Robert Sims, class of 1988; Cliff Jackson, class of 1977; and the Prima Trio - violinist Farhad Hudiyev, class of 2008; clarinetist Boris Allakhverdyan, class of 2008; and pianist Anastasia Dedik, class of 2006.
