Since the very first concert by American Bach Soloists nearly twenty years ago, Elizabeth Blumenstock’s “powerful intensity and passion” (San Francisco Classical Voice) has led the ensemble in countless performances. Music Director Jeffrey Thomas describes her artistry and unsurpassed technical brilliance as “a force of nature” and her audiences consistently agree. The Washington Post praises her “vividly authentic approach with phrasing of riveting thoughtfulness and depth,” and the Los Angeles Times acclaims her “energetically elegant musicality.” There is no better choice for a 20th Anniversary Solo Concert than this most acclaimed and in-demand American baroque violinist. Ms. Blumenstock will perform one of Bach’s notoriously demanding Solo Sonatas, along with bravura works by the preeminent virtuosos of the 17th century including Biber’s Rosary Sonatas and Corelli’s “La Follia” variations.
