With a celebrated career encompassing five decades, Pinchas Zukerman reigns as one of today’s most soughtafter and versatile musicians – violin and viola soloist, conductor, and chamber musician.He is renownedas a virtuoso, admired for the expressive lyricism of his playing, singular beauty of tone, and impeccablemusicianship, which can be heard throughout his discography of over 100 albums for which he gained twoGrammy® awards and 21 nominations.

“Zukerman again seemed the forever young virtuoso: expressively resourceful, infectiously musical, technically impeccable,  effortless. As usual, it was a joy to be in his musical company.”——The Los Angeles Times

“The precision and clarity of his sound and his strong romantic sensibility contribute to this excellence, buteven more important is the intelligence of his interpretations. The listener is constantly engaged as he bringsa little extra something to each phrase.”——Ottawa Citizen

“You could have blind folded an experienced listener, put him in a different room where he could scarcely hear the sounds, and he’d still recognize that liquid, Zukerman tone. There is no other like it….His sound isutterly inimitable – as it has been for more than 30 years – from its intense sweetness on high to its throatyrichness at the depths of the instrument….And the molten gold that streams from the instrument is completelybreathtaking. Fabulous playing.”——The Herald (Glasgow)
