Happy Birthday, Janine Jansen!

A protégé of Philippe Hirschhorn and Boris Belkin, Janine is widely regarded as one of today's top-tier soloists

 

Renowned violinist Janine Jansen was born in the Netherlands on January 7, 1978, into a musical family.

Jansen enjoys connections with some of the world's preeminent orchestras and conductors. This season’s highlights include a major US tour with the London Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Sir Antonio Pappano and European tours with the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra under Klaus Mäkelä and Die Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie under the direction of Paavo Järvi.

She continues her Artistic Partnership with Camerata Salzburg and Musikverein Wien features Jansen as an “Artist in Focus“ with multiple projects throughout its 2024/25 season. She is the Founder and Artistic Director of the International Chamber Music Festival Utrecht as well as the Co-Artistic Director of the Sion Festival.

Janine exclusively records for Decca Classics. Her latest recording released in June 2024 features Sibelius Violin Concerto and Prokofiev Violin Concerto No. 1 together with Klaus Mäkelä and the Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra and was met with high critical acclaim throughout.

Since November 2023, she has served as Professor of Violin Studies at Kronberg Academy.

Collaborating with pianist Martha Argerich and cellist Mischa Maisky, she engages in trio performances across Europe and maintains a fruitful recital partnership with pianist Denis Kozhukhin.

Janine Jansen plays the Shumsky-Rode Stradivarius from 1715, generously loaned by a European benefactor.
