The concert program includes new works commissioned by the Wax Foundation: an opus by the Latvian composer Santa Bush and a work by Plato Buravick “Restoration of a Work Instrument”. The concert will also feature the rarely performed Jānis Mediņš’s 1st Sonata for Violin and Piano (1946), as well as other compositions of Latvian classical chamber music.

Violinist Magdalena Geck performs all over Europe both as a soloist and as a chamber musician, performing at the Wigmore Hall in London, the Paris Philharmonic, “Herkulessaal” in Munich and elsewhere. Her name has been known to the Latvian public since her brilliant debut with the Latvian National Symphony Orchestra in autumn 2014, which was followed by a nomination for the Grand Music Prize.

Magdalena Geck holds a Master’s degree in Violin and Chamber Ensemble from the Paris National Conservatory of Music and Dance (CNSMDP), where she is currently pursuing her studies in the prestigious Artist Diploma program.

In 1734, Magdalena played a violin by Alessandro Gagliano, lent to her by the Anima Music Foundation.
