Born in southern Russia, Nikita Boriso-Glebsky received the special award “Violinist of the Year” in 2009 and has been the exclusive artist of the Moscow Philharmonic Society since 2007. In addition to appearances at major European festivals, such as the Salzburg Festival, the much-acclaimed violinist has also performed with many Russian and European orchestras as well as chamber ensembles.
Recreation is special in many ways: consisting of musicians whose nationalities range from Japan to Venezuela, most of the members received part of their training in Graz. After its formation in 2002, the collective played unique halls such as the Alte Oper Frankfurt and worked with outstanding conductors.
This conductor’s musical focus is equally on the Baroque, Classical and Classical Modern periods. In addition, Andreas Stoehr devotes himself with great passion to the discovery and revival of opera scores that have not been performed since their time of composition or are considered lost.
Cologne composer Max Bruch composed his one-hit wonder, the Violin Concerto No.1, on the banks of the Rhine. Nikita Boriso-Glebsky plays it with the rich sound of the Russian school and the maturity of a Kreisler prize winner. Schubert’s “Unfinished” lay in a drawer in Graz for 40 years until it was rediscovered. Andreas Stoehr endows it with an authentic Graz sound.
