If political news this week eclipsed the Grammy nominations, here’s a catch-up and a heads-up on where to hear two of them live this week.
Violinist Leonidas Kavakos, nominated for best chamber music performance for his album Beethoven for Three with Yo-Yo Ma and Emanuel Ax, plays two all-J.S. Bach solo concerts in St. Paul this week for the Schubert Club.
Pianist Víkingur Ólafsson, nominated for best classical instrumental solo for his Bach: Goldberg Variations album, played the Goldberg Variations in St. Paul for the Schubert Club in March and was kind enough to stop by YourClassical MPR to make a video of highlights.
Pianist Michelle Cann, nominated for best classical solo vocal album for Songs of Florence Price, plays Price’s Piano Concerto and George Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue this weekend with the Lacrosse Symphony Orchestra.
