Overview

'Josefowicz is magnificent throughout, whether negotiating ferocious technical challenges or playing with gentle lyrical wonder.' — The Strad

Celebrated for their 'full-force virtuosity', American-Canadian violinist Leila Josefowicz and American pianist John Novacek have been making music together since they were eight. With an enduring bond which is, quite simply, magic, this feisty duo perform ravishing music for violin and piano.

Debussy's heart-melting Sonata, Szymanowski's sensuous showpiece Mythes, and Stravinsky's mischievous The Fairy's Kiss conjure up evocative sound worlds for you to explore. British composer Charlotte Bray's Mriya, inspired by the courage and integrity of the people of Ukraine, receives its Australian premiere.

'Leila Josefowicz is just the right kind of violinist: tough, uncompromising, always ready to do battle with the band and to soar, exhilaratingly, above it.' — BBC Radio 3
