Veronika Eberle
Veronika Eberle’s exceptional talent and the poise and maturity of her musicianship have been recognised by many of the world’s finest orchestras, venues and festivals, as well as by some of the most eminent conductors. Sir Simon Rattle’s introduction of Veronika aged just 16 to a packed Salzburg Festpielhaus at the 2006 Salzburg Easter Festival in a performance of the Beethoven concerto with the Berliner Philharmoniker, brought her to international attention.
Key orchestra collaborations since then include the London Symphony (Rattle), Concertgebouw (Holliger), New York Philharmonic (Gilbert), Montreal Symphony (Nagano), Munich Philharmonic and Gewandhaus Orchestras (Langree), Rundfunk Sinfonieorchester Berlin (Janowski), Hessischer Rundfunk Sinfonieorchester (P.Järvi), Bamberger Symphoniker (Ticciati, Nott), Tonhalle Orchester Zurich (M.Sanderling), NHK Symphony (Kout, Stenz, Norrington), London Symphony (Haitink), Bayerischer Rundfunk Munich (Nézet-Séguin) and Rotterdam Philharmonic (Rattle, Gaffigan, Nézet-Seguin).
Recent concerto highlights have included debuts with the Philadelphia, San Francisco Symphony and Philharmonia Orchestras as well as with the Chamber Orchestra of Europe (Yannick Nézet-Séguin), Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra (Harding), Luxembourg Philharmonic (Manze) and Orchestre National de Lille. Veronika also toured Australia making debut performances with the Auckland Philharmonia, Tasmani Symphony and West Australian Symphony Orchestras as well as with the Seoul Philharmonic Orchestra.
In 19/20, Veronika will be artist in residence with the Sinfónica de Tenerife which will include concerto performances with Antonio Mendez as well as recitals, educational projects and masterclasses. Veronika will also return to the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra (Harding), BBC Symphony Orchestra (with Oramo at the Festspiele Mecklenburg-Vorpommern), Tokyo Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra (Ono) and she will perform the Berg Violin Concerto at the Hamburgische Staatsoper in revival performances of Lulu. Veronika will also make debuts with the Oslo Philharmonic (Nagano) and Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra (Hannigan).
Born in Donauwörth Southern Germany, she started violin lessons at the age of six and four years later became a junior student at the Richard Strauss Konservatorium in Munich with Olga Voitova. After studying privately with Christoph Poppen for a year, she joined the Hochschule in Munich, where she studied with Ana Chumachenco 2001-2012.
Veronika has benefited from the support of a number of prestigious organisations, including the Nippon Foundation, the Borletti-Buitoni Trust (Fellowship in 2008), the Orpheum Stiftung zur Förderung Junger Solisten (Zurich), the Deutsche Stiftung Musikleben (Hamburg) and the Jürgen-Ponto Stiftung (Frankfurt). She was a BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artist 2011-2013 and was a Dortmund Konzerthaus ‘Junge Wilde’ artist 2010-2012.
