Violinist Miclen LaiPang presents his debut solo album with pianist Nigel Yandell. The program is a deeply personal recital of repertoire representing styles and places that have played meaningful roles in LaiPang’s own life, featuring American spirituals and works by Amy Beach, Clarence Cameron White, Fritz Kreisler, Richard Strauss, Robert Schumann, Maurice Ravel, Franz Liszt, Felix Borowski, and Peter Tchaikovsky. Works such as Deep River and Nobody knows de trouble I’ve seen bring echoes of home, representing Miclen’s childhood and the United States, while Widmung, Liebesleid, and Waltzes from Der Rosenkavalier Waltzes are associated with his time in Germany and Austria, and Ravel’s Violin Sonata No. 2 with his current home in France. Miclen LaiPang performs on the Antonio Stradivari “Charles Castleman, ex-Marquis de Champeaux,” generously loaned by the Queen Elisabeth Music Chapel.
