Julia Fischer Live

Soundcheck | May 3, 2010
A Bach recording by rising German violinist Julia Fischer is one of the recommendations in Tom Moon's 1,000 Recordings to Hear Before You Die. She has also been named "Artist of the Year" in the prestigious Classic FM Gramophone Awards and just last week she signed a recording contract with Decca. Today, she performs live, and talks about her recent moonlighting stint as a professional pianist.
