Book Description

21st Century Violinists September 1, 2000
An exceptional variety of dynamic violin soloists are making their mark on the worldÕs stages at the dawn of this new century. Violin Virtuosos takes you into their world. In these compelling profiles, each musician reveals the personal, technical and psychological aspects of their lives in music: how they cope with isolation, how they approach and interpret their repertoire, and what kindles their passions and unites them with their audiences. This fascinating companion volume to 21st-Century Violinists includes profiles of Joshua Bell, Chee-Yun, Vadim Repin, Kyung-Wha Chung, Hilary Hahn, Viktoria Mullova, Leila Josefowicz, Christian Tetzlaff, Mark Kaplan and other gifted performers.
