Jennnifer Koh and Shai Wosner are two artists known for their consummate musicianship and the daring passion of their performances. They have gained international recognition for their exceptional artistry, musical integrity, and creative insight. Frequent recital partners, the duo will perform this season in Denver, Philadelphia, and Kansas City, among other US cities. Following a recent performance together, during which the pair performed Mozart's Sonata in B-flat Minor, The Buffalo News wrote: "...musically, they are immaculately matched. Every sixteenth note was on target. They had every tricky rhythm down pat, every sculpted silence. They entered on the same nanosecond. It was thrilling to hear...Wosner's rolled chords, gorgeously calibrated, melded beautifully with the violin's songlike tone. The [sonata's] last movement's finale brought a breathtaking display of tight virtuosity."
