MARTIN, MIHAELA The Romanian-born Mihaela Martin has achieved a reputation as one of the most
outstanding virtuoso violinists of her generation. She began to study violin with her
father at the age of five, and later went to study with Stefan Gheorghiu, a pupil of
George Enescu and David Oistrakh. She has won numerous international
competitions, beginning with the Second Prize at the Tchaikovsky Competition in
Moscow when she was nineteen and followed by top prizes in Montreal, Sion, and
Brussels. Her First Prize win at the First International Violin Competition in
Indianapolis led to a steady international career. Her début in Carnegie Hall, New
York, was acclaimed by the press, as was her recital at the Library of Congress.
Mihaela Martin boasts a very large solo repertoire and has appeared with major
orchestras and conductors of the highest distinction. In chamber music she has
collaborated with some of the leading players of today. She teaches at the Cologne
Musikhochschule and plays a Giambattista Guadagnini violin of 1748.
