In addition to his diverse performance collaborations, the Austrian violinist is also active as a composer. His new concerto for violin and orchestra, entitled "Awakening," is inspired by the sounds and rhythms of nature of the planet and cinematic soundscapes.

The performance will take place at the University of Salzburg at 7:30 with the Salzburg Philharmonic and conductor Elisabeth Fuchs. The program will also include Schubert and Piazzolla. You can purchase tickets, here.

A graduate of the Central Music School of the Moscow Conservatory and the Vienna Conservatory where he studied with Alexander Revich, Galina Turchaninova, Viktor Pikaizen, and Pavel Vernikov, Yury is a former winner of the ECHO Klassik "Newcomer of the Year" award, the International Classical Music Awards' "Young Artist of the Year" accolade and the Beethoven Center Vienna's "Young Musician of the Year" prize.

Yury currently performs on a Guarneri del Gesu violin, on generous loan from Mr Lukas Hufnagl.
