Patricia Kopatchinskaja and Jay Campbell have chosen a program that spans a millennium, underscoring the timeless power of music to communicate, innovate and move us. Kopatchinskaja "is incapable of giving a boring performance" (Bachtrack), and Campbell "performs music of our time not out of obligation but because it excites him so much." (New York Times)
Moldovan born violinist and "one of the most distinctive voices in the violin world," Patricia Kopatchinskaja's unique approach shows itself in her diverse repertoire ranging from baroque and classical works played on gut strings, to new commissions and re-interpretations of modern masterpieces. "A player of rare expressive energy and disarming informality, of whimsy and theatrical ambition" (Zachary Woolfe, New York Times, June 2018). In the U.S., Kopatchinskaja will make another important debut with Cleveland Symphony Orchestra for concerts of Eotvos Sevenand under the baton of Currentzis she will revive Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto with Musica Aeterna for a Japanese Tour.
Armed with a diverse spectrum of repertoire and eclectic musical interests, cellist Jay Campbell has been recognized for approaching both old and new works with the same probing curiosity and emotional commitment. His performances have been called "electrifying" by the New York Times "gentle, poignant, and deeply moving" by the Washington Post and on WQXR by Krzysztof Penderecki for "the greatest performance yet of Capriccio per Sigfried Palm". A 2016 recipient the prestigious Avery Fisher Career Grant, Jay made his debut with the New York Philharmonic in 2013 and worked with Alan Gilbert in 2016 as the artistic-director for Ligeti Forward, a series featured on the New York Philharmonic Biennale at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
