INGOLSTADT GEORGIAN CHAMBER ORCHESTRA Founded in Tblisi in Georgia in 1964, in 1990 the Georgian
Chamber Orchestra, with the support of the city of Ingolstadt and
of Audi AG, moved to Ingolstadt. The artistic achievement of the
orchestra owes much to its long-term leader, the virtuoso
violinist Liana Issakadze, and to conductors such as Yehudi
Menuhin and Kurt Masur. Since 2000 Markus Poschner has held
the position of principal conductor, and under his direction the
orchestra has continued its development through intensive
experience of music of the Viennese classical and modern
periods up to contemporary jazz, arousing the enthusiasm of
audiences through its unusual programming. The orchestra has
Sviatoslav Richter and Daniel Shafran, and in the recent past
with Gidon Kremer, Giora Feidman, Lynn Harrell, Mstislav Rostropovich, Sergey Nakariakov, Rudolf Buchbinder,
Christian Zacharias, Barbara Hendricks, Natalia Gutman, Sharon Kam and Gilles Apap. The orchestra has
appeared at leading European music festivals, including the Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival, the Kissinger
Summer, the Ruhr European Classic Festival and the Prague Spring. It has for years been an important element of
summer concerts in the region between the Danube and Altmühl, as well as presenting a series of events for Audi
AG and Bavarian Radio.
