Tosca Opdam is among the most prominent artists to have emerged from the Netherlands in recent years. Dividing her time between the US and Europe, she embraces the idiosyncratic qualities of both cultural worlds to enrich a personal expressiveness in music. We talked to her about her debut of a new violin concerto and various projects.  On April 23, 2020 she performs again at Carnegie Hall, Zankel Hall.
