Classical Conversations

Violist Jordan Bak

Award-winning Jamaican-American violist Jordan Bak joins us to preview his recital at BGSU on January 11, and to share a couple tracks from his debut album, IMPULSE. Described as “an exciting new voice in Classical performance” (I Care If You Listen), Jordan was named one of Classic FM's "30 Under 30" Rising Stars, and was a featured artist for WQXR’s inaugural Artist Propulsion Lab. Jordan is an Assistant Professor of viola at Bowling Green State University.

Note: The musical selections have been trimmed in this podcast. Both tracks are available on IMPULSE.
