ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
She loves being the champion of the new in classical music. Leila Josefowicz, violinist with an Avery Fisher Career Prize and a Macarthur Genius Award, hasn’t found being anointed brainy to be a detriment to her social life or connecting with listeners. She joins Dalia Stasevska for the new Saturday Sessions concert on Saturday October 18, 2025 at Heinz Hall and Friday and Sunday for the Stravinsky Violin Concerto. The Stravinsky requires full concentration with it’s tricky rhythms and furious storms of notes complete with a chord considered briefly unplayable. Drinking Earl Grey tea and wearing a Steelers sweater in the conductor’s dressing room, she spoke with Jim Cunningham about her friendship with composer John Adams, recent recordings, and what is needed to bring off music of our time.
