SEE EVENT DETAILS
at Stent Family Hall, Menlo School
(see times)
Violinist Yura Lee returns to Music@Menlo, joined by pianist Dina Vainshtein in her festival debut, for a colorful program juxtaposing Czech and Hungarian folk-inflected works for violin and piano. The rich textures of George Enescu’s Impressions d’enfance exquisitely preface Dvořák’s beguiling Opus 75 Romantic Pieces. The music of the Hungarian Jenő Hubay and the Czech Josef Suk, each among the leading composer-virtuosos of their generation, demands complete mastery of the instrument, giving voice to folk-like melodies with lyricism and dazzling virtuosity in equal parts. The program concludes with Bartók’s riveting First Violin Sonata, one of the most hallowed works of the modern violin repertoire.
