Christian Tetzlaff
Equally at home in the classical/romantic repertoire as in contemporary music, Christian Tetzlaff, commented by New York Times as “one of the most brilliant and inquisitive artists of the new generation,” sets standards with his interpretations of the violin concertos of Beethoven, Brahms and Tchaikovsky as well as Berg, Ligeti and Shostakovich. He is particularly well known for his incomparable performances of the Bach Solo Sonatas and Partitas. 2005 Musical America named him “Instrumentalist of the Year”.
Christian Tetzlaff received several awards for his recordings: the Diapason d’Or twice, the Edison prize, the Midem Classical Award as well as the ECHO Klassik prize and several nominations for the Grammy. His recent recording of all of Bach’s solo Sonatas and Partitas with Haenssler deserves special mention.
