With Art of the Sonata, violinist Petteri Iivonen teams up with pianist Kevin Fitz-Gerald to present a diverse and engaging recital programme featuring Sonatas by Bach, César Franck, and Brahms, alongside a beautiful arrangement of David Lefkowitz's "Unbearable Longing" for solo violin.
"I remember the first time I heard the name 'Petteri Iivonen'. It was late in the evening, and my phone rang at home. 'Hello Bob,' a dark voice greeted me, before I could say hello myself. 'My name is Hagai Shaham. You do not know me, but I know a young violinist you must hear right away. He comes from Finland. His name is Petteri Iivonen.' This is the sort of call, at least from musicians like Hagai, that makes producers grin from ear to ear. 'You're the Hagai Shaham? The concert violinist? Of course I know who you are. I would be delighted.'"
- Bob Attiyeh (Producer)
