Playing a duo-evening with violinist Miriam Helms Alien. Works by Ravel, Schulhoff, and Kodály.

I’m thrilled to receive the award for the best interpretation of the compulsory modern piece of Christian Jost, called “lautlos II” at the Mendelssohn Competition in Berlin. It was great to be able to work on the piece with the composer himself, and give the official premiere at Konzerthaus Berlin.

The concert was recorded, you can listen here.

I'm thrilled for the opportunity to play at my alma mater with Magdeburgische Philharmonie and participants of the International Conducting Academy Berlin.

Please find more information here.

It is a pleasure to play a concert in a school again, as part of the TONALi project. On the program works by Beethoven, Britten, and Kodály. My partner in crime is pianist István Lajkó. Looking forward!

It was a privilege to perform Boccherini and Mozart at the annual summer concert of the German Foundation of Musical Life, which was also attended by Bundestagspräsident Dr. Wolfgang Schäuble. 

After 7 years it is time to finish my studies at UdK Berlin! It has been quite a journey, and I feel very emotional about this recital, which supposed to be just an exam as many other ones... But it is impossible for me to look at it that way! I would love to see some friends in the audience and make this evening special. Here is the program:

Péter Eötvös: Two poems to Polly for a speaking cellist
Franz Schubert: "Arpeggione Sonata"
- intermission -
Ludwig van Beethoven: Sonata No. 4 in C-major Op. 102/1

At the piano the heroine of our class, Naoko Sonoda.

I'm immensely grateful for my teacher, Jens Peter Maintz, for the past 14 semesters - he has been a constant source of motivation, inspiration, knowledge, humour, and most importantly he helped me through this complicated phase of becoming a young adult. 

Last but not least I'm thankful for the coachings of Alfred Brendel, Péter Eötvös, and Rita Wagner - they had a huge influence on me generally, but also particularly on this program.

Proud to be part of my university's festival, "crescendo". Playing Boccherini and de Falla with guitarist Jesse Flowers
