Violinist David Garrett discusses potential end of world tours

Violinist David Garrett has suggested that his next world tour may be his last of its kind. During an appearance on the ZDF program “Volle Kanne,” the 46-year-old musician discussed the physical and mental toll of his career, noting that he has completed 16 world tours over the past 20 years.

Garrett indicated that he is uncertain if he will continue performing at such an intense global scale after 2028. He expressed a desire to prioritize personal time and family, stating, “I don’t know if I want to do much more than the next tour” regarding global travel. While he has not officially announced a retirement, he noted that the physical demands of constant travel are becoming increasingly difficult to sustain.
