James Ehnes with Orion Weiss

Master violinist James Ehnes and pianist Orion Weiss unite for an exquisite evening of chamber music spanning two centuries of violin-piano repertoire. The Canadian violinist, hailed as one of his generation's most compelling musical voices, brings an almost supernatural combination of technical mastery and emotional intelligence to every performance. His partnership with pianist Orion Weiss represents chamber music at its most refined.

This carefully curated program showcases the violin-piano repertoire at its most diverse and rewarding. Erich Wolfgang Korngold's cinematic Suite from Much Ado About Nothing sparkles with theatrical wit, while Johannes Brahms' First Violin Sonata reveals the composer's most tender melodic gifts. Claude Debussy's hauntingly impressionistic Sonata – his final completed work – offers glimpses into musical modernism's birth, and Edvard Grieg's passionate Third Sonata burns with Nordic fire and folkloric charm.
