Background: Renaud Capuçon is following in the footsteps of the great violinists of the past century, such as Heifetz, Kreisler and Menuhin, with this virtuoso programme of compositions, transcriptions and arrangements for the violin and piano, recorded in the Lugano Festival 2007.

In this programme, accompanied by French pianist Jérôme Ducros, Renaud Capuçon explores the repertoire of virtuosic works for violin bringing together absolute hits, such as Kriesler’s ‘Liebesleid’ as well as less well known pieces by composers from Gluck to Korngold, Strauss to Szymanowski. Renaud Capuçon’s incredible talent is manifested across a wide variety of repertoire, in a recital guaranteed to cement his reputation as one of the most promising violinists of his generation.
