Accomplishments & Awards
Yevgeny Kutik’s career has included multiple competitions, awards and recitals. In 2011, Kutik made his Lincoln Center debut at Alice Tully Hall playing the Mendelssohn D minor Violin Concerto with the Riverside Symphony, the same group with whom he made his New York City orchestral debut in 2008 playing the Tsontakis Violin Concerto No. 2. Of that performance The New York Times said his violin projected “an old-fashioned rhapsodic style, which was magnified by (his) rich, sweet tone.” In 2009, Kutik made his German debut with the WDR Rundfunk Orchestra, of which a journalist from DerWesten claimed Yevgeny “enraptured the crowd” with his performance.Other recent performances have included well-received appearances with the Tokyo Vivaldi Ensemble in Japan, the acclaimed premiere of the violin concerto “Versus” by Ron Ford with the Tanglewood Music Center Orchestra, (lauded by critics from The New York Times and The Boston Globe), and a return appearance with the Boston Pops and Keith Lockhart. As a recitalist, he has been presented by the Phillips Collection in Washington D.C., National Arts Club in New York City, Dame Myra Hess Series in Chicago and in Europe at the esteemed Ludwigsburger Schlossfestspiele (Germany) and Verbier (Switzerland) festivals. In 2006, Kutik won the Salon de Virtuosi Grant and the Tanglewood Music Center Jules Reiner Violin Prize, and he appeared at the 2006 International Violin Competition of Indianapolis, where he became a key figure in a film exploring the life of the competitors).
