The stars align when "the foremost young violinist to have emerged from Russia since the days of Heifetz" (Saint Louis Post-Dispatch) joins forces with a pianist praised as "one of the major artists of our epoch" (Le Monde). Vadim Repin won the most prestigious violin competition in the world, the Queen Elisabeth Competition in Brussels, at the age of 17, and has since appeared with the world's greatest orchestras, under conductors including Boulez, Gergiev, Masur, and Rostropovich. Winner of the 1994 Tchaikovsky Piano Competition, Nikolai Lugansky is acknowledged as one of the supreme interpreters of the piano repertoire, and his performances throughout Europe, Asia, and the Americas have earned him a dedicated and enthusiastic following. Like Repin did before him in 1998, Lugansky makes his Bay Area recital debut at Cal Performances.
