Eliot Lawson, solo violin

Composers always find inspiration in other composers. Ysaye, a twentieth century composer, was inspired by Bach and Paganini.

In the same fashion, pieces for violin solo by Leon Souroujon echo sounds of Paganini and Ysaye. And once again, Sciarrino based his caprices on those of Paganini.

And yet, with all the similarities, contrasts abound among these works!
Could it be because Bach was inspired by god and Paganini...by the devil?

It is interesting to note that the program contains the solo works by L. Souroujon. Eliot has been contracted to record the integral works for violin solo by L. Souroujon for one of Belgium's finest labels.

Eliot proposes to rotate with the following pieces: other Souroujon solo pieces and Sauret Cadenza
