Deborah Buck
Violin
A violinist appearing with Orchestra Lumos across a season of chamber and concerto programs.
In short
Deborah Buck is a violinist scheduled to perform as soloist with Orchestra Lumos in Connecticut across the 2026-2027 season, including a program pairing Debussy and Copland and a Mozart-Beethoven concert featuring the Sinfonia concertante.
What to listen for
Listeners can expect Buck to move between intimate chamber writing and large-scale concerto repertoire. The Debussy Violin Sonata in G minor calls for a violinist who can shift quickly between restless, searching lines and moments of sudden calm, while the shorter pieces around it, Stravinsky's Berceuses du Chat, Copland's Ukulele Serenade, and Boulanger's D'un matin de printemps, favor color and lightness of touch over sheer volume. In the Mozart-Beethoven program, she joins a violist for Mozart's Sinfonia concertante in E flat major, a work built around close dialogue between the two solo instruments, where listeners can listen for how the two players trade and blend a singing melodic line.
