Thursdays @ Three: Tomás Cotik

September 19, 2024: Host Christa Wessel welcomes internationally recognized soloist, chamber musician, and professor Tomás Cotik for a special in-studio conversation. Tomás will also share recordings from his illustrious career and discography.


ABOUT

Tomás Cotik’s discography includes complete opuses by Bach, Telemann, Mozart, Schubert, and his own arrangements of music by his countryman, Astor Piazzolla. These releases have garnered him the highest acclaim from the best-known publications. Gramophone Magazine writes, “joyful virtuosity and stylish musicianship that Tomás Cotik brought to superb cycle of Schubert’s violin-and-piano works…happily permeate…most rewarding Mozart cycle… There are so many delightful details to savor that one hardly knows where to begin.”

As a soloist, recitalist, and former member of the acclaimed Amernet, Delray, and Harrington string quartets, Cotik has performed hundreds of recitals and chamber music concerts worldwide. In recent seasons, he appeared at New York’s Merkin Hall, at the Music Mountain Festival in Connecticut, at the Kennedy Center in Washington, as well as in concerts in Detroit, Las Vegas, Omaha, Naples, Tampa, Miami, and tours in California, Mexico, Taiwan, and Israel.
