Based in Québec City’s Palais Montcalm since 2007, Les Violons du Roy takes its name from the celebrated court orchestra of the French kings. Founded in 1984 by Bernard Labadie, the group continues under music director Jonathan Cohen to explore the nearly boundless repertoire of music for chamber orchestra in performances matched as closely as possible to the period of each work’s composition garnering a worldwide reputation through countless concerts and recordings. The performance features Jeremy Denk, one of America’s foremost pianists. Winner of a MacArthur “Genius” Fellowship, and the Avery Fisher Prize, Denk was recently elected to the AmericanAcademy of Arts and Sciences.
