Call Me by Your Name" by director
Luca Guadagnino In addition to his solo career, Bax also performs with his wife, pianist Lucille Chung. They have shared stages at venues around the world and recorded successful albums together. Chung described playing duo with Bax: "It just needs to be at the right time, then we love to say yes, since we are a great team. There is total trust and…we think so much alike, we don't even have to talk while rehearsing. We just know after a halt, where to come in again and how to communicate what we would like to happen. We think as a unit and that is advantageous for improving one's security level within the repertoire. We feel free to take risks during performance and still are aware of the safety net, the complete support at the same time". Bax has been the artistic director of the Incontri in Terra di Siena Festival in Tuscany for ten years, the founder and current artistic director of the London Festival of Chamber Music at Smith Square Hall in London, and co-artistic director with Lucille Chung of the
Joaquín Achúcarro Foundation in Dallas. ==Awards==
