Renowned Italian violinist Davide Monti, who’s virtuoso skills were paid tribute to in the Tall Poppies award-winning recording, The Italian Devil, is set to captivate audiences with his extraordinary talent, as he returns to Woodend for one incredible performance on Saturday November 23.
Davide Monti, a master of baroque violin, will be joined by the exceptional Josephine Vains on baroque cello and Jacqueline Ogeil on Cristofori piano. Together, they will present a program of exquisite classical music by composers such as Corelli, Vivaldi, Tartini and Scarlatti.
Monti’s unique approach to violin playing is characterised by his improvisational genius and exceptional bowing techniques. His passion for fencing has significantly influenced his musical style, as he draws parallels between the two disciplines in terms of spontaneity, communication, and expressiveness.
Prepare to be enchanted by Monti’s playful and charismatic stage presence, as he breathes life into each piece with his unparalleled artistry. This concert promises to be a truly unforgettable experience for music lovers of all ages.
The Italian Devil Returns will take place at 2.30pm on Saturday November 23 at St Ambrose Church. Don’t miss your chance to see these incredible musicians in Woodend.
