Described by Yehudi Menuhin as "A true violinist of the 21st century," Gilles Apap has captivated audiences worldwide with his virtuosity, distinctive approach to music, and remarkable ability to bring joy to every concert hall he graces. Known for his masterful performances of the classical repertoire, Apap goes beyond tradition, seamlessly integrating genres like jazz and folk from different corners of the globe. His unique programming blurs the boundaries between musical styles, creating an experience that is as surprising as it is delightful.
Gilles Apap's rise to fame began in the 1990s with his groundbreaking crossover band, the Transylvanian Mountain Boys, a group that toured internationally, enchanting audiences with their innovative fusion of genres. Together, they broke new ground, merging classical sensibilities with folk influences, resulting in a sound that remains unmatched. For our "carte blanche" concert, Gilles Apap will perform alongside beloved Noe Music artist Eric Zivian in a captivating first half that features the rarely heard "Impressions D'enfance" by Georges Enescu.
In the concert's second half, Apap reunites with the Transylvanian Mountain Boys for the first time since their 2012 album, GYPSY TUNES (California Style, That Is). Audiences can expect a thrilling and unforgettable journey through the sounds that defined their trailblazing career. This reunion promises to be a joyful and electrifying celebration of music's ability to transcend boundaries, offering a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to witness the creative genius of Gilles Apap in action.
