PAGANINI LOST
Covert Ensemble recorded Jun Nagao's Paganini Lost at Spin Recording Studios in NYC during our October, 2025 tour. This piece is an original and dramatic reworking of Paganini's Caprice 24—fractured, reshaped, and propelled forward by Nagao’s unmistakable contemporary voice.

Convert Ensemble is the name of Dave Camwell and Kateřina Pavlíková's musical partnership that began in early 2021 and has resulted in more than 25 exceptional and unique arrangements of popular classical music from J.S. Bach to contemporary composers such as Max Richter. DC & KP also produce music that deliberately blurs the line between the classical, rock and pop worlds. Their ethos is centered upon musical virtuosity and beguiling visuals.
The ensemble has toured the Czech Republic, Canada and the USA, and recently led international consortiums by composers Jenni Brandon and Martin Hybler, and recorded Hybler’s Aquarius double concerto with the Pensacola Symphony Orchestra.
