Jennifer Koh makes Crain's Chicago Business '10 classical concerts to catch this fall' list

Returning to the Music Institute of Chicago as a star alumna, violinist Jennifer Koh co-stars with some of the greatest repertoire for solo violin: two pieces culled from Bach's intricate set of six sonatas and partitas. A blue-ribbon commissioner of new works for solo violin, Koh also plays "For Violin Alone," a seven-movement, looking-Bach work by contemporary composer John Harbison. Critics have described her playing of the Bach Sonatas and Partitas as intense, beautifully shaped, and mesmerizing. "Koh's arresting tone and emotional interpretations of Bach are a perfect fit for the acoustics of Nichols Concert Hall," said Music Institute President and CEO Mark George. The concert will take place at Nichols Concert Hall, Music Institute of Chicago, Evanston September 15, 2018.
