Known for his superb technique and captivating artistry, Greek violinist Leonidas Kavakos returns to Aspen in a beautiful program fit for a summer evening! Along with pianist Enrico Pace, the two will perform Beethoven’s restless and sometimes playful four-movement Violin Sonata No. 4; Stravinsky’s sprightly Divertimento from his ballet The Fairy’s Kiss; Mozart’s only minor key violin sonata, composed during a turbulent period in his life; and Franck’s lush and lyrical violin sonata, written as a wedding gift for the violinist Eugene Ysaÿe.
Recitals run approximately 90 to 110 minutes and vary based on programming.
