Isabelle Faust Solo: From Biber to Benjamin
About the Event
Regarded by his contemporaries as the best violinist in Europe, and among the most important composers for the instrument, Heinrich Biber's early programmatic works, including the Sonata representativa and the 'Rosary Sonatas' from which Faust plays extracts, have enjoyed a renaissance since the tercentenary celebrations of the last decade.
