Rachel Barton Pine captivated audiences at Ravinia, performing Paganini’s La Campanella and José White’s virtuosic Violin Concerto, conducted by Jonathan Rush with the Chicago Symphony.

In his Gramophone review, Howard Reich highlights Rachel Barton Pine’s artistry as "a virtuoso who revels in everything from Mozart to heavy metal." Performing the Chicago Symphony’s debut of Afro-Cuban composer José White Lafitte’s 19th-century Violin Concerto in F-sharp minor, Rachel infused the piece with "soaring lyricism and quicksilver spirit."
