We are very excited to announce the addition of another guest masterclass at the String Academy with world-famous violinist Vadim Repin, to be held on March 6, 2010, at the UWM Peck School of the Arts Recital Hall from 10:30-12:00. This is the second class in a series of classes sponsored by the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra in collaboration with the String Academy of Wisconsin and the Peck School of the Arts.
Vadim Repin will be in town to perform the sublime Beethoven Violin Concerto with the Milwaukee Symphony on March 5th, 6th, and 7th. (Tickets may be purchased here) Described by violin patriarch Yehudi Menuhin to be “simply the best, most perfect violinist I have ever heard,” Mr. Repin has taken his place as one of the greatest violinists of all time. You can learn more about this living legend at his website, or go to YouTube to see an incredible display of virtuosity during a performance of Paganini’s “Carneval di Venezia”.

Vadim Repin ist for me the highest what I can dream and hear and enjoy. I listen to his music: “everyday” and my only dream is to see him and hear his voice and his violin performance before I die. Is that ever possible here in Germany? with all my respect Jenna
