About this Performance
Sixteen years ago, Lisa Batiashvili recorded an outstanding rendition of Beethoven’s sole Violin Concerto. Critic James Leonard praised her performance: “Her tone is pure but touched with sweetness, her intonation precise but not at all pedantic, her phrasing lyrical but not the least sappy, and her feeling for rhythm irresistible.” Batiashvili revisits the concerto under the baton of London-born conductor Robin Ticciati, leading the LA Phil in Dvořák’s own folk-inspired lyricism including his Prague Waltzes and the strikingly colorful “mood picture” that is his Eighth Symphony.
This performance is generously supported in part by the Kohl Virtuoso Violin Fund.
