“…there is astonishing artistry to complement her creativity. She plays most of the time barefoot onstage. Her body and her instrument and the music she makes all seem one. She is ever thrilling alive to the moment.”
–Los Angeles Times
Born into a Moldavian family of musicians, violinist Patricia Kopatchinskaja is a bundle of energy known as much for the passion and virtuosity of her playing as for the fact that she often performs barefoot. Despite the fact that the classical music world has dubbed her the “wild child” of the violin—or, perhaps, because of it—she has been steadily performing concerts around the world and garnering praise for her charm, charisma, and an expressiveness likened to that of a stage actor’s. The natural phenomenon comes to the Board of Officers Room with cellist Jay Campbell to perform duos from a wide-ranging repertoire that perfectly showcases the pair’s extreme styles of music making.
