Patricia Kopatchinskaja

violin

“Constantly characterised (and slightly demeaned) as a ​“quirky maverick”, Kopatchinskaja proved here that she’s in a class of her own.” – The Times

Patricia Kopatchinskaja’s focus is to get to the heart of the music, to its meaning for us — now and here. With a combination of depth, brilliance and humour, Kopatchinskaja brings an inimitable sense of theatrics to her music. Described by The New York Times ​“a player of rare expressive energy and disarming informality, of whimsy and theatrical ambition”, Kopatchinskaja’s distinctive approach always conveys the core of the work, whether it is with an out-of-the-box performance of a traditional violin repertoire classic or with an original staged project she presents as experimental performance dramaturge.
