Nikolaï Lugansky and Vadim Repin November 8, 2008

In a partnership made in classical music heaven, pianist Nikolaï Lugansky and violinist Vadim Repin create the perfect musical dialogue with their breathtaking skill and deeply expressive performances. One of today’s leading violinists, Repin has received rave reviews for the fiery passion, impeccable technique, poetry, and uncommon sensitivity he brings to his playing. Hailed as the next great Russian pianist, Lugansky has been described as “a pianistic phenomenon of exceptional class” [NRC Handelsblad, The Netherlands], and as a “riveting” and “stand out” [Telegraph, U.K.] performer. The Russian duo makes its Royce Hall debut with a thrilling program of sonatas by Debussy, Prokofiev and Beethoven.
