Einstein’s Violin offers a unique insight into the inner life of the twentieth century’s most celebrated scientist.
Written by Paul Wingfield and performed by Harry Meacher (Einstein), Leora Cohen (violin) and Paul Wingfield (piano), this play with music transports the audience to Princeton on Monday 11 April 1955, in the final days of Albert Einstein’s life.
As he reflects on his lifelong love affair with his violin, Einstein shares his voyage of discovery as a European Jew, shaped above all by the horrors of the Holocaust. Through music and memory, he grapples with fundamental questions of the morality of war, the existence of God, and invites us into the parallel universe of the great man’s alternative career as a violinist.
