After winning two of the most important violin competitions in recent years (Queen Elizabeth Competition in 2009 and the Yehudi Menuhin Competition in 2008), Ray Chen has been receiving rave reviews from critics and colleagues the world over and is widely regarded as a dazzling young violinist with a highly successful career in front of him.
The new album from the talented young violinist Ray Chen is an exciting selection of Ray Chen’s personal favourites from different strands of the repertoire. The album includes the fiendishly difficult “Devil’s Trill” Sonata by Tartini, Bach’s monumental “Chaconne”, two works by Wieniawski, whose ”Variations on an original theme in A major Op.15“ is only attempted by violinists in the very top flight. The album closes with Franck’s intimate and poetic Violin Sonata in A.
