Gil Shaham, violin and Orli Shaham, piano

This event is part of the annual Classical Series.

GRAMMY Award–winning violinist and Musical America’s 2012 Instrumentalist of the Year, Gil Shaham, returns to Wisconsin Union Theater for a recital with “brilliant pianist” (The New York Times) and Van Cliburn Competition jury member Orli Shaham. Hear the duo perform works by two under-appreciated 19th–century women virtuoso composers—Swedish violinist Amanda Röntgen–Maier and pianist Clara Schumann—alongside their male peers Robert Schumann and Johannes Brahms in a concert that promises both to deepen appreciation and to expand awareness of the greatest exponents of Romantic chamber music.

Stay tuned for information about a studio class with Gil and Orli Shaham!
