While Maestro Ivry Gitlis represents the golden generation of violinists, the young Raphael Oleg is now at the zenith of his career. A charismatic virtuoso, he could start a storm of applause wherever he appears.

In the last season, conductor Ronald Zollman delivered a shattering Rite of Spring and a marvelously beautiful Harp Concerto by Boieldieu. This season he is coming for a feast of classics from Haydn, Beethoven to Berlioz and Stravinsky. Among the soloists are the promising young violinist Raphael Oleg.

This is one of the Brilliant Soloists Series in the 2006-2007 Season, also one of the Classic Repertoire Series in the 2006-2007 Season.
