Violin icon Itzhak Perlman returns with an illustrious group of collaborators, continuing a tradition that makes every Carnegie Hall appearance an occasion. Joining him are world-renowned pianist Emanuel Ax; Jean-Yves Thibaudet, a pianist of “unparalleled polish and conviction” (Bachtrack); and the extraordinary Juilliard String Quartet, with which he recorded Chausson’s Op. 21 Concert (one of the program’s centerpieces) to great acclaim nearly 40 years ago. Also included on the program are a Leclair sonata for two violins—an expressive and conversational showpiece for the instrument—and a Mozart quartet that is one of the great early works written for piano with strings.
