La belle époque: The Legacy of Ysaÿe

Thursday, May 20 – 7:30 PM
Indiana Landmarks Center – 1201 Central Avenue

1998 IVCI Gold Medalist Judith Ingolfsson and her husband/pianist Vladimir Stoupel return to Indianapolis to present repertoire from their 2019 recording La belle époque. The great Eugène Ysaÿe, considered to be the “King of the Violin,” inspired countless works and dedications throughout his life, including Théodore Dubois’ only violin sonata. César Franck wrote his A major violin sonata as a wedding present to Ysaÿe in 1886.

NOTE: Face masks and social distancing required for this performance, and will be livestreamed. Live and Virtual tickets available at www.violin.org.

**This program replaces 1986 IVCI Gold Medalist Kyoko Takezawa, who was affected by international travel due to the pandemic.**
