BORIS GOLDSTEIN – HIS LIFE
Boris Goldstein (Busya Goldstein) (1922 – 1987) was born in Odessa and has
been recognized at a young age as one of the brightest violin stars. At the age of
10 he played with the Moscow Radio Orchestra Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto,
with which he established a startling career. His teachers include Pjotr Stoljarski, Abram Jampolsky, Lev Zeitlin and Konstantin Mostras. The young violinist soon won prizes at renowned competitions in Moscow, Warsaw and
Brussels, followed by numerous successful concerts in various European capitals.
As a teenager, Boris Goldstein, was singled out by Heifetz as being USSR’s
most brilliant violin talent. Other famous musicians such as Fritz Kreisler, Sergej Prokofieff and Yehudi Menuhin admired Goldstein’s way of playing. Goldstein has made various recordings with Violin and Chambermusic pieces,
amongst them works that have been dedicated especially to him. Prokofieff’s
Violin Concerto No. 2 has been premiered by Goldstein conducted by the componist himself.
In 1974, Boris Goldstein left the USSR and emigrated to Germany, where in
1976 he was appointed professor for violin at the «Hochschule für Musik Würzburg». His solo appearances in Germany and Western Europe were memorable highlights of his brilliant career.
Wherever he played, he was acclaimed by audiences and critics, the London
Daily Telegraph praising him in 1986 as a «legendary violinist and a master of
the great Slav school of violin playing». From 1981 onwards, Boris Goldstein
was joined by his daughter Julia on enormously successful tours through Germany, Spain, Italy, France and Belgium.
As a teacher Goldstein, was regarded one of the most accomplished in his field.
Many of his pupils won prizes at a highly prestigious of international violin competitions. In 2004, he was featured as one of the greatest violinists of the 20th Century in the documentary film «The Art of Violin», aired on PBS under the program «Great Performances». Boris Goldstein died in Hanover in 1987.

CITY
MAP
WELCOME TO BERN
The capital of Switzerland has many charms. Bern’s quaint Old Town, a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site, is framed by the Aare river and offers
spectacular views of the Alps. With its 6 km of limestone buildings and medieval arcades, its Renaissance fountains with colorful figures, and the beautiful Cathedral surrounded by picturesque rooftops, Bern, founded in 1191,
is truly a gem of medieval architecture in Europe.
Bern is a city of superlatives: most beautiful flower city of Europe, birthplace
of Einstein’s relativity theory, cradle of Toblerone chocolate and home to the
largest Paul Klee collection in the world. And because Bern is situated on a
peninsula, everything is close together and can be reached easily on foot,
by tram or bus.

Prof. Zakhar Bron
Prof. Ida Haendel
Prof. Yair Kless
Prof. Bartek Niziol
Zakhar Bron has been a prize winner at the
world’s most prestigious competitions,
including the Queen Elisabeth Competition
in Brussels and the Henryk Wieniawski
Violin Competition in Poznan.
Zakhar Bron gained fame when he left the
Moscow Conservatorium of Music to move
to distant Siberia. Far away from political
influences in the capital, he created a new
world elite of violinists. Through his silent
revolution in Siberia, Bron developed the
greatest violin talents of today’s concert
halls. Vadim Repin, Maxim Vengerov and
Natalia Prischepenko are only a few of
the illustrious names to emerge from this
period of Bron’s teaching. After helping the
conservatorium of music in Novosibirsk to
international renown, Zakhar Bron began
to work beyond the borders of Russia,
teaching in Germany, Spain and Japan.
From this period of Bron’s teaching come
talents such as Chloe Hanslip, Daniel
Hope, Daishin Kashimoto and David Garrett
Today, Prof. Zakhar Bron teaches at the
conservatories of music in Zurich, Switzerland (ZHdK), Cologne, Germany, and at the
Escuela Superior de Música Reina Sofía in
Madrid, Spain. He teaches master classes
in the United States, in South America,
Asia and Europe, and since 2010 has been
involved in various new developments at
the Interlaken Classics Festival in Inter-
laken/Switzerland. He travels the globe,
performing as a soloist on the world’s
greatest stages and working as a juror for
many international competitions.
Ida Haendel was a child prodigy. Competition wins opened the doors to study with
such esteemed pedagogues as Carl Flesch
and Georges Enescu. With her incandescent performances of Enescu’s challenging
Sonata for Violin and Piano, Ms. Haendel
has paid tribute to a teacher she has
described as «spellbinding – one of the
world’s great geniuses.»
From the moment the three-year-old
picked up her father’s violin and played
note-perfectly a song her mother had been
singing in another room, Ida Haendel has
never stopped performing. She supplants
performances with master classes which
are filled with wisdom and inspiration. Her
protestations that she doesn’t really want
«to tell anybody how to play» should not be
taken seriously. Results prove otherwise.
Ida Haendel has performed with most of
the major orchestras under numerous star
conductors on several continents and has
been traversing concert stages for more
than 70 years and has no intention of
slowing down.
Her long and celebrated career continues
as she continues to have an active performing career. Recent performances include
a special appearance as Honorary Artist in
Cambridge at the Cambridge International
String Festival in August of 2012 and most
recently she performed the Bruch Violin
Concerto in Miami Florida with Grzegorz
Nowak Principal Associate Conductor at
Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
Born in Israel, Yair Kless began playing the
violin at the early age. He graduated from
Tel Aviv Music Academy, under the tutelage
of Israel Amidan. He moved to Brussels
to study with Prof. Andre Gertler in the
Royal conservatory and Chapelle-Musicale
Reine-Elizabeth, graduating with the
highest distinction in both instrumental
and chamber music.
Yair quickly became a well known soloist
performer and chamber player. His vast
repertoire ranges from Baroque to Modern,
including premieres of works, some of
which were written especially for or dedicated to him.
Yair was one of the founders and first
violinist of the Sol-La-Re string quartet,
recording among others, major works by
Israeli composers. He was a member of
the «Israeli Baroque Players» which toured
extensively around the world, such as
participating at the prestigious Salzburg
Festival. Other ensembles and groups
include the «Tel-Aviv piano quartet», USA
based «New Art Trio», Modus Trio, Modus
Ensemble and many international projects
and festivals. He enjoys collaborating with
his son Eyal, in Duo violin repertoire.
As one of the most prominent teachers in
the world today, many of Yair‘s students
have reached successful solo and chamber
careers, winning prizes in the competitions
and holding key teaching and performing
positions.
Violinist Bartek Niziol was born in Stettin,
Poland, in 1974 and studied with Jadwiga
Kliszewskain Poznan and Pierre Amoyal
in Lausanne. He attended Master Class
courses with Zachar Bron, Ruggiero Ricci,
Mauricio Fuks and Michael Frischen-
schlager.
Whilst still studying in Poznan in 1991 he
won first prize at the International Henryk
Wieniawski Competition, as well as first
prize at the International Violin Competion
in Adelaide. In the following year he also
won first prize at the International Violin
Competition in Pretoria,Eurovision in
Brussels, and the Marguerite Long-Jacques Thibaud Competition in Paris.These
awards enabled him to debut as soloist
with orchestras such as English ChamberOrchestra, Orchestre Philharmonique de
Radio France, NDR Hamburg, New JapanPhilharmonic, Sinfonia Varsovia and Ton-
halle-Orchester Zurich. Conductors with
whom he has worked as soloist include
Yehudi Menhuin, David Zinman, Marek
Janowski, Heinrich Schiff and Krzysztof
Penderecki.
Concert tours have taken Bartek Niziol to
Asia, Africa, South America and throughout
Europe.
Bartek Niziol is leader of the Valentin Berlinsky Quartet (founded in Zurich in 2010).
SinceSeptember 2008 Bartek Niziol has
been Professor of Violin at the Bern Hochschule der Künste. He also sits on the Jury
for the International Henryk Wieniawski
Competition in Poznan as well the Instrumental Competition of Migros Culture in
Zurich.
