Daniel Hope is one of the greatest violinists of our time—an internationally celebrated star who has led the new generation of avant-garde classical musicians. Following unforgettable performances on the world’s greatest concert stages from Beijing to New York, he recently took the helm of the Zurich Chamber Orchestra, fulfilling a long-standing dream: to infuse a renowned ensemble with his own musical vision. A film companion to Hope's anticipated performance at Koerner Hall on November 17, The Sound of Life tells the story of his extraordinary career: one of escape, expulsion, and desire for self-discovery.
