2008
21-year-old Veronika Eberle has established a reputation as one of the most promising violin talents to emerge from Germany in recent years. Highlights among this season’s projects include return engagements with the NHK Symphony Tokyo, the Rotterdam Philharmonic, and debuts with the Academy of Saint Martin in the Fields, the BBC Symphony, the BBC Scottish Symphony and the Russian National Philharmonic. Over the past two seasons, she has given recital debuts in New York (Carnegie Hall), Paris (Theatre de la Ville), and Salzburg (Mozarteum), Montreal (Place des Arts), Munich (Gasteig). This season includes debuts in London (Wigmore Hall), the Lucerne Festival, and the Konzerthaus Dortmund will continue to feature her as one of its Junge Wilde artists. Veronika Eberle was born in 1988 in Donauwörth, Southern Germany, where she started violin lessons at the age of six. She later joined the Hochschule in Munich, where she is currently studying with Ana Chumachenco. Her exceptional talent, the poise and maturity of her musicianship have been recognised by conductors, orchestras and festivals around Europe. She gave her concerto debut at the age of 10 and since then has appeared with some of the world’s finest orchestras. Her introduction by Sir Simon Rattle to a packed Festpielhaus at the 2006 Salzburg Easter Festival, in a performance of the Beethoven concerto with the Berliner Philharmoniker, spurred her international career. Veronika Eberle plays the “Dragonetti” Stradivarius (1700), on generous loan from the Nippon Music Foundation.
