James Ehnes

Thursday, June 26, 2008

Manitoba-born violinist James Ehnes is being called one of the hottest Canadian classical musicians to come along in a long time. Earlier this year he received a Grammy Award for his recording of concertos by Barber, Korngold and Walton. He joins us today -- in advance of an appearance with the NY Philharmonic -- to perform the music of J.S. Bach in our studio.

James Ehnes performs tonight at 8pm and tomorrow at 7:30 pm at Avery Fisher Hall with the New York Philharmonic. He performs again at Avery Fisher Hall Tues. Jul. 1 and Wed. Jul. 2.
