She has thrilled audiences world-wide with her passion for music and brilliant display of technique and musicianship. Maestro Jung-Ho Pak, conductor and artistic director of the Cape Symphony Orchestra, says of Lindsay, “A conductor dreams about finding a soloist who understands the essential responsibility of helping change a large community’s view of classical music. In a time when every concert has to be unforgettable and a game changer, Lindsay can make that happen every time.”

Lindsay Deutsch is presently touring as solo violinist with Yanni having just finished up tours with him throughout North America, Saudi Arabia, Uzbekistan, Abu Dhabi, Indonesia and Egypt.

When Ms. Deutsch is not on tour with Yanni, she is touring the country with her trio, TAKE3, which is quickly gaining national attention. With a flair for the wild and unexpected, the genre-defying trio, TAKE3, brings the refinement of a rigorous classical music background and infuses it with rock-star charisma. Known for their infectious and down to earth onstage personalities, this threesome leaves their indelible mark on captivated crowds around the country performing their arrangements of top pop hits, Americana, and classical favorites. Although only together for a short time, the trio already has an impressive season lined up, visiting PACs and performing with orchestra in most of the 50 states.

Ms. Deutsch can be heard on the theme and all 8 episodes of the new Netflix blockbuster series, “The Witcher”, which features her prominently as violin soloist.

The Youth Orchestra Residency Program, now in its 5th year, has grown into a popular nationwide program for youth orchestras in which Ms. Deutsch is actively involved.
