Avie Records Frank Almond: violin William Wolfram: piano TARTINI: Devil’s Trill • SCHUMANN: Sonata in D minor • plus works by Julias Röntgen & Karol Lipinski “Intoxicating brilliance and immense panache.” — The Strad Frank Almond A Violin’s Life Cat # AVR 2279 Price Code: Q (SRP $15.99) Number of Discs: 1 Jewel Case, Box Lot 25 5% PREORDER DISCOUNT d U.S. ORDERS ONLY A Violin’s Life traces the provenance and history of the “Lipinski” Strad, one of the most notable of the coveted string maker’s instruments, which are worth millions today. Crafted in 1715, the violin is named for Polish virtuoso Karol Lipinski, who played this instrument from c. 1818 until his death in 1861. Frank Almond, concertmaster of the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra, has played on the “Lipinski” Strad since 2008. Envisioning a project that chronicled the extraordinary history of this violin and its associations, he has made a recording that includes Tartini’s most famous work, the “Devil’s Trill” Sonata, as well as a virtuoso solo piece by Karol Lipinski, one of Julius Röntgen’s unjustly neglected violin sonatas, and the stupendous Sonata in D minor of Robert Schumann, certainly performed during their lifetimes with Schumann at the piano and Lipinski playing this very instrument. William Wolfram is Frank’s estimable accompanist. Print Advertising in Gramophone, BBC Music Magazine, Listen, Strings, The Strad, Violinist.com. Priority for coverage in all classical magazines and newspapers, and for airplay on all classical stations. E-blast to Avie mailing list (c. 5,000).

This recording pays tribute to Bach, Bartók, and Kurtág, and also to two legendary piano duos: Dittá and Béla Bartók, and Márta and György Kurtág. The recording highlights the strength of the union of two minds, which — like Dittá and Béla Bartók, Márta and György Kurtág, and Inge Spinette and Jan Michiels — can phrase music with a rare degree of intensity and acuity. d U.S. ORDERS ONLY 6
