Recorded at the age of 19, the same age at which Mozart composed these works, Lir Vaginsky presents her album of Mozart violin concertos, furnished with innovative, adventurous new cadenzas, as well as the Piano Trio “Mozart-Adagio” by a giant of modern day classical composition, Arvo Pärt. Vaginsky is joined in this new album by pianist Ohad Ben-Ari and cellist Hila Karni, who together form a formable trio alongside the Konzerthaus Kammerorchester Berlin. Just as composers of Mozart’s generation would have devised their own cadenzas, so too does Lir Vaginsky in a delivery which shows meticulous understanding of the scope and depth of the repertoire, underscoring a personal collection of music from an artist familiar with Mozart’s music since her very first days playing a violin.
