Mark Kaplan: Violin Master Class

Michael Hill International Violin Competition: Mark Kaplan - Violin Master Class

Professor Mark Kaplan has performed in all the principal cities of Europe, including London, Berlin, Paris, Vienna, Prague, Zurich, Amsterdam, Copenhagen and Milan, as well as the Far East and Australia. In the United States he has played with nearly every major orchestra, including the New York Philharmonic, Los Angeles Philharmonic, Cleveland Orchestra, Philadelphia Orchestra, the National Symphony Orchestra of Washington, D.C., and the symphony orchestras of St. Louis, Pittsburgh, Baltimore, Minnesota, Cincinnati, Dallas and Houston.

With a repertoire that stretches from the baroque to the present day, Kaplan has recorded extensively. His performances appear on various commercial labels, including Koch, Arabesque, Claves and Copl Legno.

A dedicated chamber musician, he recently formed a new trio, Sequenza, with cellist Colin Carr and pianist Yael Weiss. Professor Kaplan plays a violin made by Antonio Stradivari in 1685, which is named "The Marquis" after the Marchese Spinola, whose family owned the violin for several generations.
