Experience Avi Avital live on April 13th

Avi Avital is scheduled to perform at Konzerthaus Dortmund on April 13, 2027. Avital is an Israeli mandolin virtuoso renowned for expanding the instrument’s repertoire beyond its traditional classical and folk origins. His performances frequently incorporate Baroque music transcribed for the mandolin, alongside contemporary compositions written specifically for him, and explorations of cross-cultural musical influences, including Klezmer and Argentinian tango. He is known for a dynamic stage presence and technical proficiency that challenges perceptions of the mandolin’s capabilities.
