The recital’s repertory is broad, including works by Ludwig van Beethoven, Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber, Yannis Konstantinidis and Arvo Pärt. “Fratres” by Arvo Part with its minimal character was the initial idea that shaped the rest of the repertory. Each piece resembles part of who the violinist is either as a musician or a person generally.
