Beethoven’s Night with Dmitri Berlinsky

Celebrating the masters of classical music with Beethoven’s Symphony No.7 and Violin Concerto featuring Dmitri Berlinsky. Great Lakes Chamber Orchestra is thrilled to bring internationally acclaimed violinist Dmitri Berlinsky to our northern Michigan audiences performing Beethoven’s Violin Concerto! Mr. Berlinsky arrived on the international scene as the youngest winner in the history of the Paganini International Violin Competition in Genoa, Italy. Born in St. Petersburg, Russia into a family of musicians, Mr. Berlinsky began studying the violin with his father. At a very early age he appeared as soloist with the St. Petersburg Symphony and the Moscow Philharmonic. Since, he performed with most prestigious orchestras worldwide. The Los Angeles Times describe Dmitri as “Pyrotechnically impressive and fiery…” The concert will also feature Beethoven’s Symphony No.7, which Beethoven himself remarked that it was one of his best works. The second movement, “Allegretto”, was so popular that audiences demanded an encore!
