Description
In her solo album TWO, violinist and violist Elisabeth Kufferath presents compositions of four modern composers, each represented by one work for
the violin and one work for the viola.
Elisabeth Kufferath is possible one of the very few soloists to promote the Violin and viola literature of the contemporary composers. Three of the
pieces were written for her and they are presented here in world premiere recordings.
"It is astonishing, the way Kufferath pivots between free and fragile, from heavenly chirping tenderness to bearing the earth's burdens, how many colors and even more nuance her playing expresses." Die Welt
A member of the Tetzlaff String Quartet since its inception in 1992, Elisabeth Kufferath has performed on the stages of some of the most auspicious halls in Europe and the United States, including Philharmonie Hall in Berlin, Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, Musikverein in Vienna, Carnegie Hall in
New York, and the Library of Congress in Washington D.C. In 2015 the Tetzlaff Quartet was awarded a Diapason d'Or de l'année for their recording of string quartets by Berg and Mendelssohn. Praised by conductor Heinz Hollinger as "unquestionably one of the most interesting and influential
string players of her generation", she is a player with a wide-ranging stylistic palette, and is coveted as both a chamber musician and soloist.
