Maxim Vengerov
Maxim Vengerov (originally Russian Максим Александрович Венгеров / Maxim Alexandrowitsch Wengerow , scientific transliteration Maksim Aleksandrovič Vengerov ; born August 15, 1974 in Novosibirsk ) is a Russian - Israeli violinist who lives in Germany and has been a merit teacher of the Saar since 2006 .
Career
Maxim Vengerov was first taught by Galina Turchaninova and was one of the students who followed the legendary violin teacher Zakhar Bron from the Eastern Bloc to the Lübeck University of Music in the early 1990s , but Vengerov was one of the few who had lasting success.
The collaboration with renowned conductors such as Mstislaw Rostropowitsch and Daniel Barenboim contributed to further artistic development . Vengerov also studied conducting with Vag Papian . He made his debut with the Concertgebouw Orchestra and the BBC Philharmonic . Until 2000 he had an exclusive contract with Teldec Classics, since May 2000 he has been with EMI Classics.
At the beginning of 2007 he suffered an injury to his right arm, which is why he had to pause as a soloist for a long time and only appeared as a conductor. In September 2010 he performed again as a violinist.
Game culture
Vengerov polarizes with a game that is particularly rich in nuances and inspired by an overflowing imagination.
further activities
On the occasion of an encounter with the harpsichordist Trevor Pinnock at the Salzburg Festival in 1992, Vengerov learned to play the baroque violin , which he has since played for the baroque repertoire as well as for classical works. In 1997 he became UNICEF ambassador for the Saarland . From 2000 to 2005 Vengerov was professor for violin at the Saarland University of Music and since 2005 at the Royal Academy of Music in London. For the 2019/2020 academic year, he received a three-year endowed professorship from the Mozarteum University in Salzburg .
