Episode Synopsis "Violinist Serge Zimmermann: "The world will surely hear about him…""
"The world will surely hear about him…," wrote one enthusiastic critic about Serge Zimmermann from Cologne, Germany. The quote became the title of this Concerto Discreto concert.Born in Cologne in 1991, Zimmermann comes from a family of musicians. His father is the renowned violinist Frank-Peter Zimmermann, and his mother began to teach him the violin when he was five years old. In 2000, he gave his orchestral debut with a Mozart violin concerto. Five years later, he played his first recital in the German city of Essen; his interpretation of the Bruch Violin Concerto in 2006 garnered him enthusiastic press reviews. One raved, "…even the orchestra joined in the audience's rejoicing."
