Liubov Ulybysheva was born in Moscow and started playing the cello at the age of five. Having studied at the Gnessin Special Music School and the Russian Music Academy, she came to London in 2003 to continue her studies at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama and the Royal Academy of Music. She has won numerous competitions and scholarships, including the First Prize at the Tunbridge Wells International Young Concert Artist Competition, the MBF Music Education Award, the Muriel Taylor Young Gifted Cellist Award, the Hattori Foundation, the Jellinek and the Kenneth Loveland awards. Liubov was also a recipient of the Meyer Foundation Award and the English Speaking Union Scholarship. As a concerto soloist, Liubov has performed in Russia, the UK, and Europe with the Moscow State Symphony Orchestra, Moscow Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra, Russian State Symphony Orchestra Young Russia, and more. Liubov is also a keen chamber musician and regularly performs in the UK and abroad. She has played with,amongst others, Dora Schwarzberg, the Mozart Piano Trio and the Razumovsky Ensemble. She has performed live on BBC Radio 3, BBC Radio Ulster and Classic FM.Liubov released her debut recording, From the Shadow of the Great War, in 2018, featuring the works for cello and piano by English composers. In 2019, Liubov became an artistic manager of the Brundibar Arts Festival which aims to bring little-known music written during the Holocaust to the general public. She is very honoured to have been awarded the Associate of the Royal Academy of Music in 2020.
James Kreiling's solo career has focused on music of the early 20th century, in particular the piano works of Scriabin. His doctoral thesis, completed at the Guildhall School of Music,focused on the interaction of research, analysis, and performance practice in the interpretation of Scriabin's late piano sonatas. He has recorded two discs encompassing the composer's complete late piano music, which was released by Odradek in 2018 to great critical acclaim, including a five star review in BBC Music Magazine. Determined to bring Scriabin's often misunderstood work to a wider public, he has experimented with presenting music in unusual formats and locations and is a co-founder of Multiphonic Arts, mounting concerts which mix classical piano with other performance arts - poetry, drama and dance, folk and jazz.
