Music Video LinksArtist BiographyAvailable in:
German born violinist Nadja Zwiener studied in Berlin and at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London, where she specialised in historical performance practice of music from the 17th to the 19th century.
After having played with various British, French, Belgian and German Early music ensembles, Nadja was appointed leader of The English Concert in 2007, with whom she has toured Europe, the US and Asia. She also appears as concerto soloist and directs programmes from the violin. Nadja particularly enjoys working with singers and creating interesting chamber music programmes that might go as far as combining Early Music with improvised, electronic or even contemporary music.
As a Thuringian living in Leipzig, Nadja Zwiener feels particularly at home with the music of Bach. She was the concertmaster at the Bachakademie Stuttgart from 2016 to 2022, where she helped in building up the Gaechinger Cantorey orchestra on original instruments.
Her first solo CD Senza Basso- Auf dem Weg zu Bach was released in 2021 on the Leipzig label Genuin, followed two years later by the recording 1723 with Johannes Lang for Ramée. Both recordings were enthusiastically received by the press. This led to the formation of a new early music ensemble at St. Thomas Church in Leipzig, the Collegium Musicum ’23. Their first recording, The Art of Fugue on Bach’s Original Instruments, will be released in Spring 2025 (Ramée).
Nadja plays a violin by David Tecchler (Rome 1723).
