Kavakos and Trifonov: a varied musical landscape at Carnegie Hall

After Brahms, Bartók’s more episodic, folk-driven Rhapsody no. 1 felt somewhat anticlimactic. The piece draws from the Hungarian verbunkos tradition – structured in the customary slow–fast (lassú–friss) format – but also evokes other Eastern European folkloric patterns. Yet in this performance, Kavakos and Trifonov smoothed over the music’s more biting rhythmic edges, taming the wildness rather than reveling in its rugged roots. The jagged syncopations of the lassú felt unusually polished, while the friss, which should surge forward with unrestrained vigor, was somewhat cautious. Kavakos’ burnished tone and precision, admirable in many contexts, here softened the work’s sharp contours, while Trifonov’s accompaniment lacked some of the percussive drive that Bartók’s folk-inspired piano writing demands. The work’s improvisatory spirit felt restrained, its characteristic fiddler’s flourishes only partially conveying a sense of spontaneity – dampening, rather than unleashing, the raw energy that defines this music.

    Violinist Leonidas Kavakos.

    Leonidas Kavakos performed Shostakovich's Violin Concerto No. 2 with the National Symphony Orchestra and Gianandrea Noseda, following an audience uproar over the appearance of U.S Vice President J.D. Vance in the audience.

    • Washington Classical Review: "the Greek violinist gave a burning, even vitriolic rendition of (Shostakovich's) Violin Concerto No. 2, the last concerto Shostakovich completed, from "
    • The Washington Post: "Noseda and his orchestra sustained a tension that commanded attention, impossibly flipping the energy of the room. Kavakos played a big part in this feat, giving an athletic, acidic performance of Shostakovich’s second violin concertoKavakos on Thursday sounded preternaturally suited to its demands: rapid-fire double stops, sudden changes of character, barely a break."
