HENNING KRAGGERUD

In his playing Norwegian violinist Henning Kraggerud combines an unusually sweet tone and beauty of expression with impressive virtuosity. He maintains a busy diary as soloist with many of the world’s major orchestras, building relationships with leading conductors. The playing/directing element of his career is fast developing, featured with the Zurich Chamber Orchestra and the Pacific and Vancouver Symphony Orchestras. A committed chamber musician, he performs on both violin and viola at major international festivals and in summer 2011 began his rôle as co-artistic director of the Risør Festival of Chamber Music. His recordings include Schubert’s Arpeggione Sonata and a disc of the complete unaccompanied Violin Sonatas by Ysaÿe (Naxos 8.570977), for which he received the prestigious Spellemann CD award. Henning Kraggerud is a recipient of Norway’s prestigious Grieg Prize and in 2007 was awarded both the Ole Bull Prize and the Sibelius Prize. He is a professor at the Barratt Due Institute of Music in Oslo, and plays a 1744 Guarneri del Gesù, provided by Dextra Musica AS, a company founded by Sparebankstiftelsen DnB NOR.
