Arizona Philharmonic Season Opener Features Violin Virtuoso Katherine McLin

September 2, 2024 By quadcities Leave a Comment

Tickets and information can be found at AZPhil.org.

Arizona Philharmonic’s Concertmaster and violin virtuoso Katherine McLin has enjoyed an extremely varied and prolific musical career as a concerto soloist, recitalist, chamber and orchestral musician, and teacher since her debut with the Oregon Symphony at age 15. McLin is the featured soloist in Passion, Peace, and Power, 3 p.m., Sunday, Sept. 8, at Ruth Street Theater, performing under the leadership of Maestro Peter Bay.

 McLin made more than 100 appearances as a soloist with orchestras across the country. Her repertoire spans 300 years, from Vivaldi’s Four Seasons to the premiere of Lera Auerbach’s 2017 work Twofold Dream for Violin, Piano and Orchestra with the composer at the piano. She appears on 20 compact disc recordings under the Summit, Centaur and Opus One labels, and her live performances have been broadcast on NPR’s Performance

Today, NYC’s WQXR, and local television and radio stations throughout the country. She performs on a 1709 Francesco Gobetti violin, on loan from the ProMusica Chamber Orchestra.

 “AZ Phil is honored to have someone of McLin’s expertise and passion grace our stage so early in the season,” said AZ Phil Executive Director Abby Coffey. “While most orchestras in the state don’t start their seasons until October, causing them to rely on substitute musicians until their principals return from summer festivals, AZ Phil’s collaboration with McLin, Bay and the Ruth Street Theater creates an outstanding audience experience for music lovers to enjoy so early in the orchestral season.”
