THE ARTISTS

Born in Kazan, Russia, Anna Petrova began playing piano at the age of five, taking up the violin two years later. Her musical talent and first successful performances during her childhood and youth (1st Prize at the Moscow National Youth Competition 1995) made it possible for her to continue her studies at the P.I.Chaikovsky State Conservatory School of Music in Moscow, where she received her Diploma of Arts and Education in 2001. Anna Petrova has been living in Munich, Germany since 2002, where she was enrolled as a graduate student in the Richard Strauss Conservatory under Professor Urs Stiehler. She is also collaborating in various projects with Wolfram Graul, head of Audio Engineering at the Bavarian State Broadcasting Corporation.

She has participated in numerous master classes given by Michael Kopelman, Zakar Bron and Aaron Rosen at the International Academy of Music, New York, and with Boris Kuschnir at the Queen Elisabeth Master Class. In addition to her chamber music activities, Anna Petrova has being Concertmaster in several symphony orchestras and has given solo performances of violin concerts by J.S.Bach, W.A.Mozart and Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy. Anna Petrova performs on an Italian violin made by Giovanni Florentus Guidantus, Bologna, in the 18th century.

Yorick-Alexander Abel, son of a Cuban mother and German father, received his first violin lessons from John Snow in Brussels at the age of five. Some years later he began his cello studies under Young-Chang Cho in Cologne, continuing them later with Nelly Moser in Bonn. After 1995 he studied in France with Barbara Marcinkowska at the Conservatoire National de Versailles, where he was awarded two gold medals and two honors prizes for cello and chamber music by unanimous decision of the jury.
