Christian Tetzlaff, violin, is acclaimed for his performances of a broad spectrum of repertoire, from Bach’s unaccompanied masterpieces to world premieres of contemporary works. Born in Hamburg in 1966, Tetzlaff made his concert debut playing the Beethoven Violin Concerto when he was 14. He is sought after as a soloist by most of the world's leading orchestras and conductors, including the Chicago, Cleveland, Boston, Philadelphia, San Francisco, St. Louis, Pittsburgh, National, Toronto, and London, symphony orchestras; the Berlin, Los Angeles, Rotterdam, and Vienna philharmonics; and the Bavarian Radio Symphony and Royal Concertgebouw, among many others. He is compelling as a recitalist in all the world’s most prestigious halls, from Berlin to New York, Amsterdam to London. He has been the Artist-in-Residence with the Berlin Philharmonic.
Tanja Tetzlaff, cello, has been one of the most influential musicians of her generation for decades, both as a soloist and as well as a chamber musician. Her playing is characterised by a sound uniquely fine yet powerful, a sound always imbued with a deep musicality. Tanja Tetzlaff's calling card is her breadth of repertoire and her passion for innovative concert formats; she goes beyond the presentation of purely classical music, incorporating other art forms, and is a sought-after interpreter of 20th and 21st century compositions. In 2021, she premiered the Double Concerto for Cello & Percussion by Rolf Wallin, followed by the world premiere of the Double Concerto for Cello & Percussion by Olga Neuwirth in 2022.
Kiveli Dörken, piano, who studied in her early years with Lars Vogt, has performed for the Dalai Lama as well as German chancellor Angela Merkel. She has performed as soloist with such orchestras as the Hamburg Camerata, the Camerata Bern and the Athens state orchestra. Ms. Dörken has performed in some of the world’s most famous venues, including the Elbphilarmonie in Hamburg, the Mariinsky-Theater in St. Petersburg, the Gewandhaus in Leipzig, the Konzerthaus Berlin and the Alte Oper Frankfurt, and is a regular guest at many prestigious festivals, including the Kissinger Sommer, the Spannungen Festival in Heimbach and the Schleswig-Holstein Musik Festival. Ms. Dörken is the founder and Artistic Director of the Molyvos International Music Festival on the Greek Island Lesbos..
