Newport Classical Music Festival 🎵 Eldbjørg Hemsing

Charismatic Norwegian violinist Eldbjørg Hemsing is one of the leading young violinists of our time. At Newport Classical, she returns to her roots as a specialist of the music of Edvard Grieg, opening this imaginative program with his Sonata for violin and piano No. 2. Llewellyn Sanchez-Werner, a Festival Artist and “gifted virtuoso” (San Francisco Chronicle), joins Ms. Hemsing from the piano for this astonishing recital program.

In partnership with NewportFILM, Eldbjørg will also deliver a post-screening talk following a showing of the documentary film Forte. This free screening will be part of NewportFILM’s outdoor summer programming, with more details to come.
