Igor Ruhadze

**Igor Ruhadze** is a dynamic violinist and Baroque music specialist known for reviving lesser-known gems of the classical repertoire. As the artistic director of the ensemble **Camerata Bachiensis**, he focuses on historically informed performances, often breathing new life into works by composers like Locatelli, Biber, and Geminiani. His passion for meticulous craftsmanship and period instruments shines through in recordings that blend scholarly rigor with vibrant energy.

Ruhadze’s discography highlights his knack for unearthing overlooked masterpieces, from Leclair’s fiery concertos to Boccherini’s elegant sonatas. Recent projects, like *Timeless Strings: The Violin Works of Oleg Plotnikov* and *Biber: Mystery Sonatas*, showcase his versatility across eras and styles. Whether leading his ensemble or diving into solo repertoire, Ruhadze bridges centuries of music with a warm, approachable flair that makes even 18th-century works feel fresh and alive.
