The Times has written that Alina Ibragimova performs with “a mixture of total abandonment and total control that is in no way contradictory” and that she is “destined to be a force in the classical music firmament for decades to come”. Performing music from baroque to new commissions on both modern and period instruments, Alina Ibragimova has appeared with orchestras including the London Symphony, BBC Symphony, Konzerthausorchester Berlin, Stuttgart Radio Symphony, the Hallé, Netherlands Radio Philharmonic, and the Philharmonia, with conductors including Sir Charles Mackerras, Sir John Eliot Gardiner, Sir Mark Elder, Carlo Rizzi, Richard Hickox, Walter Weller, Osmo Vänskä, Yannick Nézet-Séguin, Edward Gardner and Gianandrea Noseda. Future engagements include debuts with Valery Gergiev in St Petersburg, Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment with Vladimir Jurowski, Seattle Symphony, Indianapolis Symphony, Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen, and the Academy of Ancient Music. As soloist/director she has performed with the Kremerata Baltica in Paris, Salzburg and Verbier, and has toured with the Britten Sinfonia and Australian Chamber Orchestra. In recital and chamber music Alina Ibragimova has appeared at venues including the Wigmore Hall London (where she and regular recital partner Cédric Tiberghien have recently performed the complete Beethoven violin sonatas), Concertgebouw Amsterdam, Mozarteum Salzburg, Musikverein Vienna, Carnegie Hall New York, Palais des Beaux Arts Brussels, Vancouver Recital Series, and at festivals including Salzburg, Verbier, MDR Musiksommer, Lockenhaus, and Aldeburgh. Born in Russia in 1985 she is a former pupil of the Moscow Gnesin and Yehudi Menuhin schools and the Royal College of Music London, where her teachers have included Natasha Boyarsky, Gordan Nikolitch and Christian Tetzlaff. Alina Ibragimovia has been a member of the BBC New Generation Artists Scheme, a recipient of a Borletti-Buitoni Trust Award, and winner of a Classical BRIT.
