With his captivating tone, his outstanding technique and his deeply felt interpretations, Augustin Hadelich is considered one of the world’s best violinists. He is a welcome guest with all major orchestras, concert series and festivals. Highlights of the new season include concerts with the Berlin Philharmoniker, the Concertgebouworkest, the Wiener Philharmoniker, the Gewandhausorchester Leipzig, the Los Angeles Philharmonic and The Cleveland Orchestra. This violinist has also given solo recitals in London, Barcelona, Gothenburg, Tallinn, Melbourne and Abu Dhabi. He can be heard as a duo with pianist Francesco Piemontesi in Budapest, Dresden, Katowice, Rome and Bologna and, in summer 2025, will be giving several concerts with orchestras in Asia.

Born in Italy to German parents and now a US and German citizen, Augustin Hadelich studied with Joel Smirnoff at the Juilliard School in New York. This violinist has received numerous awards, including a Grammy Award. The trade magazine Musical America voted him ›Instrumentalist of the Year‹ in 2018. Hadelich has also been teaching at Yale School of Music since 2021. He plays the 1744 ›Leduc, ex Szeryng‹ by Giuseppe Guarneri del Gesù, on loan from the Tarisio Trust.

With his compelling interpretations of Mozart, Jérémie Rhorer took the international music scene by storm almost twenty years ago. Since then, this French conductor and composer has successfully moved between opera and symphonic music. Rhorer was already performing at a high level as a child and went on to study conducting with Emil Tchakarov, Karajan’s renowned assistant, before finally finding his artistic calling whilst studying composition with Thierry Escaich.

Through Le Cercle de l’Harmonie, which he founded in 2005 and continues to lead to this day, Rhorer is regarded as one of the pioneers of historically informed performance practice for the Classical and Romantic repertoire, exploring a path stretching from Haydn and Mozart through Beethoven, Schumann and Brahms to Bruckner, and from Gluck and Berlioz to Verdi and Wagner –  always with the aim of reviving the timbres and theatricality, in keeping with the spirit of the work.

Guest engagements regularly take him to renowned orchestras worldwide as well as to Europe’s leading opera houses and festivals in Vienna, Amsterdam, Zurich, Brussels, Salzburg, Berlin, Madrid, Rome, Venice and Florence, with a repertoire expanding from Mozart to Schoenberg.

In 2025, Jérémie Rhorer received the Honor of Officer of the Order of Arts and Letters by the French Ministry of Culture.

This sought-after conductor has been working closely with the Deutsche Kammer­philharmonie Bremen for many years. Their current collaboration focuses on works by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky.
