At the age of eleven, Julia Fischer not only carried off the top prize at the 1995 International Yehudi Menuhin Competition (overseen by Lord Menuhin himself) but was awarded a special prize for "Best Bach Solo Work". Her 2006 BBC Music Magazine "Best Newcomer" Award was also given in response to her Bach playing - specifically her complete of the solo Sonatas & Partitas, of which the jury said: "There are many s of Bach's works for solo violin but rarely do they reach such breathtaking heights of musicianship as this one. Review ------ "Across the world thrusting young violinists are two a penny, but there is only Julia Fischer." -- The Times "Technically her playing was impressively accomplished and elegant, richly varied in colorings. In long-spanned, calmly lyrical phrases her luminous and true tone soared..." -- New York Times P.when('A').execute(function(A) { A.on('a:expander:toggle_description:toggle:collapse', function(data) { window.scroll(0, data.expander.$expander[0].offsetTop-100); }); }); About the Artist ---------------- NEW YORK, NY - November 18th, 2008 - Accled German violinist Julia Fischer has signed an exclusive contract with the Decca Music Group, the company has announced. Her first album will be Bach: Concertos recorded with the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields. Christopher Roberts, President Classics & Jazz, Universal Music Group International said: "The Universal Music labels are blessed with an extraordinary roster of master violinists. I have been following the development of Julia's career for many years and it gives me great satisfaction that she has decided to join that roster." Bogdan Roscic, Managing Director of Decca, added: "As high as the expectations for technical proficiency on the violin have risen, Julia Fischer's indescribable virtuosity continues to amaze me - probably because it is coupled with a musical personality of the highest articulacy. She also has the most determined vision of what she wishes to achieve with her s. Her additions to Decca's instrumental catalogue will be long-lived references." "It is a pleasure and honor for me to join Decca for new musical adventures," Julia Fischer said. "I look forward to working with a label that not only has an esteemed history, but that is so open to new possibilities and ideas. I hope that listeners around the world will enjoy my new s and I am very much looking forward to this new chapter of my musical life." Voted "Best Newcomer" by BBC Music Magazine in 2006 and accled as "Artist of the Year" in the prestigious Classic FM Gramophone Awards only a year later, 25-year-old Julia Fischer is already being hailed as one of the truly great violinists of the twenty-first century. At the age of eleven, Julia Fischer not only carried off the top prize at the 1995 International Yehudi Menuhin Competition (overseen by Lord Menuhin himself) but was awarded a special prize for "Best Bach Solo Work". She went on to win the Eighth Eurovision Competition for Young Musicians the following year. Born in Munich in 1983, to a pianist mother from Slovakia and a mathematician her from Eastern Germany, Julia began learning the piano with her mother when she was three, but was soon persuaded to take up the violin instead because, as she explains, "since my elder brother also played the piano, my mother thought it would be nice to have another instrument in the family -- so I agreed to try it out." She began to have violin lessons at the Leopold Mozart Conservatoire in Augsburg and was soon convinced that playing the violin would always be an extremely important part of her life. "I'd always thought it the most wonderful thing one was allowed to do -- to be on stage and play a concert!" Three years later Julia became a pupil of the famous Ana Chumachenco at the Munich Academy of Music [Musikhochschule]. Countless performances and prizes later, she herself now teaches at the Academy for Music and the Performing Arts [Hochschule für Musik und Darstellende Kunst] in Frankfurt am Main, where she has the distinction of being Germany's youngest Professor of Violin. In her career so far, Julia Fischer has worked with such major conductors as Lorin Maazel, Christoph Eschenbach, Yakov Kreizberg, Yuri Temirkanov, Sir Neville Marriner, David Zinman, Marek Janowski, ert Blomstedt and Michael Tilson Thomas, and with a variety of leading European, American, Russian and Japanese orchestras. She has performed in most European countries, the USA, Brazil and Japan, and in concerts broadcast on TV and radio in every major European country, as well as on many US, Japanese and Australian radio stations. The 2008/9 season includes concerts with the Chicago Symphony under David Zinman and the Los Angeles Philharmonic under Christoph Eschenbach, as well as appearances with the New York Philharmonic (Maazel), Boston Symphony (Temirkanov), Philadelphia Orchestra (Dutoit) and San Francisco Symphony (Tilson Thomas). Julia Fischer is also guest artist and leader for the Fiftieth Anniversary tour of the Academy of St Martin in the Fields. In Europe, Julia will perform with the Tonhalle Zurich Orchestra, the Orchestra of Santa Cecilia in Rome and the Philharmonia (Maazel); tour with the Chamber Orchestra Württemberg in Scandinavia as well as with the Netherlands Philharmonic; and return to the Gewandhaus Orchestra in Leipzig and the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra in Munich. She will play with the NHK Symphony in Japan and be heard in recital in Europe, North America and Asia. Looking further ahead, Julia Fischer will be "Artist in Residence" in Zurich (with the Tonhalle) in 2009/10 and in both Baden-Baden and Monte Carlo in 2010/11. During 2009/10, she will also tour her Bach solo Sonatas & Partitas programme in Europe and the USA. Her Decca debut of Bach solo and double concertos will be released in January 2009.
