Benjamin Beilman, violin
Steven Osborne, piano
Certain words seem to recur in nearly every review of a performance by the electrifying young American violinist Benjamin Beilman: tone, sound, intensity. A few seasons ago, Beilman’s debut with the Berkeley Symphony in Jennifer Higdon’s Violin Concerto brought the house down, and now he returns in his Cal Performances debut with a recital that explores influence and inspiration between the composers Clara Schumann and Brahms, and works by French composers Lili Boulanger and César Franck. “Playing with rich sound and plenty of brilliance, Beilman conveyed both dreamy lyricism and heated intensity” (The New York Times).
The run time for this concert is approximately 1 hour and 40 minutes, including intermission.
