Chamber Music's Magnificent Seven

 

Presented by UCSB Arts & Lectures

 

Itzhak Perlman, violin

Emanuel Ax, piano

Jean-Yves Thibaudet, piano

 

“Itzhak Perlman is a superstar of classical music… No other violinist enjoys his level of recognition.” The New York Times

“Perlman’s great (and undiminished) gift is to deliver timeless, mainstream music to his audiences with uncomplicated affection, directness and humanity.” The Washington Post

 

Two of the world’s most distinguished pianists – Emanuel Ax and Jean-Yves Thibaudet – join the reigning virtuoso of the violin Itzhak Perlman and the “endlessly agile” (The New York Times) Juilliard String Quartet for an evening of exceptional chamber music. Each member of this remarkable all-star lineup is fully capable of commanding a rapt audience on their own. In this lush and thrilling program of works spanning three centuries, they explore textures and nuances of expression only available to an extended ensemble.
