Subscribers have been informed that the US violinist has pulled out of Israel Philharmonic performances of the De Hartmann concerto in January. No reason has been given.

Maxim Vengerov will jump in. He’ll play the Brahms concerto.

    No one should be performing in a country doing the things Israel is doing right now.

    The fans just got an upgrade

    Go get it, Maxim!

  • Elizabeth says:

    Who cares….there are better violinists out there. Maxim Vengarov is superb.

  • PRKFV says:

    Vengerov is the superior violinist, but it’s a shame not to get to hear the de Hartmann concert in Israel.
