Description
Acclaimed violinist Nancy Zhou presents her own personal exploration of the essence of the human experience through four masterful composers: Bach, Bartok, Ysaye, and Kreisler. From Bach's intricate counterpoint to Bartok's raw folk intensity, and from Ysaye's breathtaking virtuosity to Kreisler's lyrical charm, the album is a captivating journey through the soul of the violin. Offering her own fresh perspective on these iconic works, blending historical insight with personal interpretation, Nancy Zhou invites listeners to engage with the music on a profound and intimate level. A sought-after soloist and chamber musician, Nancy Zhou has performed with leading orchestras worldwide, including the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic, Munich Symphony, and Hong Kong Philharmonic. Passionate about education and musical exploration, she is a dedicated mentor and a champion of contemporary works, bridging cultural heritage with artistic innovation.
