Interview with Arabella Steinbacher
When I spoke with Arabella Steinbacher, she was half way through a tour with the Orchestre National de Lille in Southern France playing the Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto and conductor Mark Shanahan. The bitterly cold weather allowed the German violinist some extra time in her hotel to speak with me about her early career and her inspirations for what has been a busy calling embracing the standard classical repertoire and explorations of less known 20th century repertoire.
United Kingdom Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninov: Valentina Lisitsa (piano), Russian State Philharmonic Orchestra / Valery Polyansky (conductor), The Usher Hall, Edinburgh, 4.3.2018 (GT)
