"Tall Tales, Magic and Majesty"

An evening with violinist Augustin Hadelich

Continuing to astonish audiences with his phenomenal technique, poetic sensitivity, and gorgeous tone, Augustin Hadelich has established himself as one of the great violinists of his generation. He will enchant OKC audiences as part of the OKC Philharmonic’s Classic Series this October.

Hadelich shows consistency throughout his repertoire, from Bach and Beethoven to Ligeti and Adès, which is said to be seldom encountered in a single artist. Highlights of Augustin Hadelich’s 2015/2016 season include debuts with the Chicago Symphony, Pittsburgh Symphony, and the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra at Carnegie Hall, as well as return performances with the London Philharmonic, The Philadelphia Orchestra, and the symphonies of Atlanta, Cincinnati, Detroit, Louisville, Milwaukee, New Jersey, Oregon, Seattle, Utah, and Vancouver.

Other projects include a return to Wigmore Hall in London, a recording with the London Philharmonic, a residency with the Bournemouth Symphony, and numerous recital appearances in
Germany.

With this season’s added symphonies, Hadelich will have appeared with every major orchestra and chamber orchestra in the U.S., several on numerous occasions.

The OKC Phil performance Tall Tales, Magic and Majesty with violinist Augustin Hadelich will be Sat, October 17, at 8pm at the Civic Center Music Hall at 201 N. Walker in OKC.
