Birdsong relocates Patricia Kopatchinskaja's compositions
Bern-based violinist Patricia Kopatchinskaja is becoming increasingly visible as a composer. She now has a global distribution partner in Birdsong, the publishing house of the HarrisonParrott agency.
According to the Birdsong press release, Patricia Kopatchinskaja has already written and performed a violin concerto and a series of duos. Some of her pieces have been performed in the Berlin Philharmonie with musicians from the Karajan Academy and in Lockenhaus by Nicolas Altstaedt and Vilde Frang and recorded for the Alpha label. This also applies to a duo with Pekka Kuusisto, which was performed in Oslo in September 2022.
The violinist often performs her pieces as an encore, often with members of the orchestras she has performed with. Together with clarinettist Reto Bieri, she has recorded some of her duos for violin and clarinet for Phantasmagoria, the Elbphilharmonie's video label. A composition for violin and four speaking voices was premiered at Radiokulturhaus ORF 2022.
