VC ARTIST | Violist Matthew Lipman – “Splendid Technique and Musical Sensitivity”

28 year old American violist, Matthew Lipman, is firmly establishing himself as one of the new generation’s outstanding young concert artists, praised for his "splendid technique and musical sensitivity"

A graduate of The Juilliard School and the Kronberg Academy, where he studied with Heidi Castleman and Tabea Zimmermann, Matthew Lipman is a former prize winner at the Lionel Tertis International Viola Competition and the Washington, Johansen and Stulberg International String Competitions. He is also a recipient of a prestigious Avery Fisher Career Grant.

His recent debuts include solo performances with the Minnesota Orchestra, Illinois Philharmonic, Grand Rapids Symphony and the Academy of St Martin in the Fields, and recitals at Carnegie Hall, Aspen Music Festival and New World Symphony Viola Visions.

Matthew holds the Susan and Ken Wallach Endowed Chair at the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center and was recently appointed as a member of the Honorary Committee at the Music Institute of Chicago and as the American Viola Society Artist-in-Residence.

Matthew currently performs on a 1700 Mateo Goffriller viola, on generous loan from the Rachel Barton Pine Foundation, and he holds a teaching position on the faculty at Stony Brook University, in New York.

He is currently on the roster of Dorn Music, in Hannover and New York, for worldwide general management.
