When a reclusive technology writer, estranged from his family, receives a surprise invitation from the world's most brilliant and controversial technologist to attend a secret event of the century in Berlin, he reluctantly agrees to its perilous conditions: total secrecy, relentless surveillance, and invasive sensors strapped to his body.
At the legendary Berlin Philharmonic, he joins a carefully curated audience as Viviana-a robot artist powered by revolutionary artificial intelligence and drawing on the audience's most intimate data-delivers stunning performances of profound beauty.
But when a fragile young pianist named Maya is unexpectedly invited to the stage, the Philharmonic becomes an evolutionary pressure chamber in which human and machine creativity are pushed to their limits, with consequences that could reshape the future of humanity itself.
Virtuosa is a gripping literary speculative thriller about art, technology, and what it means to be human as rapidly evolving machine intelligence challenges our perceptions of creativity, genius, beauty, and even personhood.
