Classical Acts of the Decade
"Stephanie Chase delivers,
with the Louisville Orchestra, a sensational account of
Edward Elgar's Violin Concerto. The Elgar is among a handful
of the most demanding works in the standard concerto
repertoire, and Chase's account takes a challenge and turns
it into a privilege."
- Andrew Adler,
Courier-Journal, December 27, 2009

"One of the most respected
classical violinists in the world," (Woman Around
Town)
Stephanie Chase
is in demand as soloist with
eminent orchestras that have included the
New York Philharmonic, Chicago Symphony, San
Francisco Symphony, Atlanta Symphony, and London Symphony
Orchestra, in performances acclaimed for their "elegance,
dexterity, rhythmic vitality and great imagination"
(Boston Globe) as well as "stunning power"
(Louisville Courier-Journal) and "matchless
technique"
(BBC Music Magazine).
Renowned for her
"rich, passionate tone, dead-true intonation throughout,
and virtuosity galore" (Gramophone),
Stephanie
Chase is a top medalist of the International Tchaikovsky
Competition in Moscow and recipient of the prestigious
Avery
Fisher Career Grant.
"Refreshingly stylish"
(St. Louis Post-Dispatch)
and equally at
home in the virtuoso's repertoire, historically-informed
performance practice, and contemporary music, Ms. Chase offers a repertoire
of about sixty concerti
and major works for violin soloist and orchestra, and provides her own cadenzas for many Classical-era
concerti. As a recitalist, she performs in concert
halls throughout the United States and abroad.
“Chase’s
interpretation of the Beethoven Violin Concerto, which earned
her and the orchestra a long standing ovation, was one
of the best I have ever heard, live or recorded....Chase has
an indescribable quality on stage. She is like a great
actress, with such presence that by speaking softly, she can
make the audience hang on every syllable....The cadenzas were
simply stupendous, both in composition and execution." - Portland
Press Herald
