TSO cellist Elizabeth Rice joined the Toledo Symphony cello section in 2018, and one of her first performances with our orchestra was Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony. A graduate of the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music – CCM, Elizabeth received both Bachelors and Masters degrees in Cello Performance while studying with Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra cellist Alan Rafferty. She has also studied with Hans Jensen at the Meadowmount School Of Music, and has received recognition in competitions as both a solo and chamber musician.
When not playing cello, Elizabeth enjoys being outdoors, petting dogs, and baking, and dreams of hiking the Pacific Crest Trail.
