‘I was amazed by the quality of this remarkable violinist whom I consider to be one of the five best contemporary violinists in the world.’– Mstislav Rostropovich
Pairing effortless lyricism with intense virtuosity, Italian-based violinist Sergej Krylov carries the influence of the great cellist Mstislav Rostropovich, with whom he regularly shared a stage as a young violinist. Krylov has held the multi-faceted role of Music Director of the Lithuanian Chamber Orchestra since 2008, while performing as soloist with orchestras such as the London Philharmonic, Orchestre National de Lyon and the Deutsche Symphonie-Orchester Berlin.
During this Australian tour, which also sees him perform with the Queensland and West Australian Symphony Orchestras, Krylov is joined by Konstantin Shamray for a recital of exquisite French repertoire. Camille Saint-Saëns’ Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso and Ravel’s Tzigane are bookended by two evergreen sonatas. As with his preceding opus, Ravel’s Violin Sonata No. 2 embodies the increasingly cosmopolitan milieu of France in the 1920s, while Franck’s wedding gift to Eugène Ysaÿe promises to illuminate Krylov and Shamray’s sensitivity and fire.
This concert is presented by UKARIA in association with Adelaide Festival.
