REDCAT: “A riveting violinist.” — The Los Angeles Times

As beautiful and highly charged in its performance as it is ingenious in its choice of repertoire, this concert of solo violin and viola music by internationally celebrated New Zealand-born virtuoso Mark Menzies promises to open up our contemporary understanding of those instruments—and the solo concert experience itself. The program consists of work by Béla Bartók, György Ligeti, Elliott Carter, Carolyn Chen, Liza Lim and Vinko Globokar, as well as pieces by New Zealand composers Samuel Holloway, Helen Bowater and Jack Body. The performance at REDCAT is part of a quartet of concerts by Menzies spread out over seven days in L.A.
