  • For Immediate Release Spellbinding, Genre-Bending Violinist Patricia
    For Immediate Release Contact: Stephen Sokolouski 651.292.4318 [email protected] Spellbinding, genre-bending violinist Patricia Kopatchinskaja to become the SPCO’s newest Artistic Partner 2014 Grammy-nominated “Bartók, Eötvös & Ligeti” CD also named Gramophone Recording of the Year in 2013 “Patricia Kopatchinskaja’s fiddling is part Gypsy princess, part Stephane Grappelli, part Paganini” - The Australian "Her playing is sovereign and animalistic, tender and sassy” - Tagesspiegel (Berlin) “If anyone thought classical music was stuffy or corseted, here was the riposte” - Financial Times “A fearless violinist who enjoys jolting audiences” – Musical America SAINT PAUL, MN, January 30, 2014 – The SPCO announces today that internationally celebrated violinist Patricia Kopatchinskaja has been named the orchestra’s newest Artistic Partner. Kopatchinskaja will begin her tenure in the 2014-15 season where she will be joining current Artistic Partners Roberto Abbado, Edo de Waart, Christian Zacharias and Thomas Zehetmair. The SPCO will be the first major American orchestra to present Kopatchinskaja in concert. SPCO President Bruce Coppock proudly said, “One of the great joys of our work at the SPCO is to introduce Twin Cities audiences to sparkling and effervescent artists, musicians previously unknown to our patrons, but who will shortly become household names and favorites of SPCO audiences. Kopatchinskaja is the most ravishingly intense and virtuosic musician I have heard in a very long time, and she is sure to be one of those discoveries. She assimilates the earthiness —more— of her Eastern European roots, her rigorous traditional training and a seemingly limitless imagination to create performances that are completely convincing, utterly compelling and downright spectacular.” Kopatchinskaja has been praised world-wide for her “irresistible,” “unpredictable,” and “wonderfully imaginative” performances (The Times).
