Kerson Leong – CSD Debut

We are thrilled to introduce internationally acclaimed Canadian violinist Kerson Leong in his solo Detroit debut on Sunday October 19 at 2 p.m. at The Hawk Mainstage Theater in Farmington Hills, with the support of the Consulate General of Canada in Detroit 

“With a rich, magical sound, devilish precision of intonation, and a range of colors and nuances that followed the twists and shifting atmospheres of the composition, the violinist from Ottawa all but hypnotized the audience.”  (Le Devoir, July 2021)

At age 28, Leong’s astonishing array of awards and accomplishments portend a career of epic achievement.  Chamber Soloists of Detroit attendees will surely be proud to say, “We were there when…!”
