The words ‘superstar’ and ‘mandolinist’ still look odd next to each other. Yet in the classical world they are starting to be joined with some frequency….[Avi Avital] was nothing short of electric.”
The New York Times
Join us for a captivating evening as mandolin superstar Avi Avital plays with the esteemed period ensemble il Pomo d’Oro in a concert of exquisite Baroque masterpieces from Venice and Naples.
Avi Avital, the first mandolin soloist nominated for a classical Grammy award, has reshaped the instrument’s history with his unparalleled technique and charisma. In this concert, Avital performs magnificent concertos by Baroque composers including Vivaldi, Galuppi, Durante and more. A truly unique and masterful showcase that you won’t want to miss!
Avi Avital made his Hong Kong début with Premiere Performances in 2015, and returned in 2019 for the Beare’s Premiere Music Festival.
