Violins on a flute?

A friend of mine is going to the Kennedy Center to see this.

It looks to be delightful evening, but here's something I just don't get:

"[Itzhak] Perlman leads the [National Symphony] Orchestra in the overture to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's comic opera 'The Marriage of Figaro' and Antonin Dvorak's exuberant and rhaposdic Eighth Symphony, while [Emmanuel] Pahud performs Aram Ilich Khachaturian's stunning Violin Concerto, in a unique transcription for flute."

So this guy is going to play a violin piece on the flute? "A unique transcription" indeed!?
