Tai Murray Biography
Described as "superb" by The New York Times, violinist Tai Murray is establishing herself a musical voice of a generation.
"Technically flawless...vivacious and scintillating...It is
without doubt that Murray's style of playing is more mature than that of
many seasoned players; and, with a debut record this outstanding, it
can safely be assumed that she will exceed many expectations - she's
certainly exceeded mine."
Francesca Treadaway, Muso Magazine
Appreciated for her elegance and effortless ability, Murray
creates a special bond with listeners through her mature phrasing and
subtle sweetness. Her programming reveals musical intelligence. Her
sound, sophisticated bowing and choice of vibrato remind us of her
musical background and influences, principally, Yuval Yaron (a student
of Gingold & Heifetz) and Franco Gulli. Winner of an Avery Fisher
Career Grant in 2004, Tai Murray was named a BBC New Generation Artist
(2008 through 2010).
She has performed as guest soloist on the stages of such halls as
the Barbican, Chicago's Orchestra Hall, Copenhagen's Tivoli Gardens,
and Shanghai's Concert Hall. Performing with such ensembles as the
Atlanta Symphony, BBC Scottish Symphony, and Orquesta Sinfónica Simón
Bolívar. Now a resident of Berlin, Tai Murray's appearances close to
home include Berlin's Konzerthaus and Kammermusiksaal at the
Philharmonie, projects with the Philharmonic Staatsorchester of Mainz
and Düsseldorfer Symphoniker, and tours with the Brandenburger
Symphoniker and Niederrheinische Sinfoniker.
As a recitalist Tai Murray has visited many of the world's
capitols having appeared in Berlin, Chicago, Hamburg, London, New York,
and Washington D.C. among many others. She will return to Wigmore Hall
in both 2013 and 2014.
As a chamber musician, she has joined tours with Musicians from
Marlboro and was a member of Lincoln Center's Chamber Music Society II
(2004-2006). Festival appearances include Ireland's West Cork Festival,
and the Great Lakes Chamber Music Festival in the USA.
