Gil Shaham Plays Boulogne
Virtual Event
The legendary violinist Gil Shaham makes his LACO debut as a guest soloist for Arvo Pärt’s ethereal Fratres and Boulogne, Chevalier de Saint-Georges’ Violin Concerto No. 9. For the first time, Close Quarters cinematographer Michael Elias Thomas is filming from within the orchestra, drawing audiences into the ensemble and immersing the viewer in the beauty of pure music-making. This unique feature will enable audiences to explore the impeccable artistry of Gil Shaham and the musicians of LACO with an intimacy previously unexplored in this series.
