Gutman performs with violinist Slava Moroz (her son) and pianist Dmitri Shteinberg. The program includes Bach's Third Solo Cello Suite, Brahm's Trio No. 3, Schubert's Arpeggione Sonata, and Shostakovich's Piano Trio No. 2.
Gutman first performed in the United States in 1969, when she appeared with Leopold Stokowski and the American Symphony Orchestra. Shortly thereafter, Soviet authorities forbid her to travel, possibly because she defended cellist Misha Maisky, another target of the government.
After nine years of restricted travel, Gutman began to perform in Europe. She returned to the United States in 1986, and is now seen regularly around the world.
