The Canadian-American violinist James Ehnes has been praised for his visionary interpretations and analytical clarity. In the international press, his playing has been described as both “crystal clear” and “marked by an exceptional naturalness”. Ehnes is one of the season’s featured portrait artists and also appears with the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra as soloist in Samuel Barber’s Violin Concerto on 18 and 20 February.

He has previously appeared at Konserthuset on several occasions, and this evening he returns together with pianist Orion Weiss in three of Beethoven’s violin sonatas: the Fifth in F major, the so-called Spring Sonata, the restlessly charged Seventh in C minor, and the bright and reflective Tenth and final violin sonata.

“Beethoven is so utterly central to the entire art form. Sometimes one almost feels that all music before Beethoven led up to him – and that all music after him is, in some way, a consequence of him,” says James Ehnes.
