Amber Emson is a German-British violinist who is building a name for herself. Recently awarded with the Mica Comberti Price, she is the First Prize winner of the International Music Competition Hohenpriesnitz, and Germany's national “Jugend Musiziert” competition, as well as Second Prize at International Competition “Szymon Goldberg”. She has been invited for chamber and solo performances at major concert halls worldwide, such as Elbphilharmonie Hamburg, Berliner Philharmonie, Wigmore Hall, Cadogan Hall, Singapore Victoria Hall, ANAM Quartethaus in Melbourne and Rheingau Musikfestival. A passionate chamber musician, she took part in ‘Mit Musik – Miteinander' at Kronberg Academy in 2018, and regularly participated at ‘MusicWorks' under the guidance of mentors including Catherine Manson, James Boyd, Robert Max and Alasdair Beatson. Between 2019 and 2022, she was a member of LGT Young Soloists, with whom she appeared playing Phillip Glass's Echorus on their recent album. She is a former pupil of Natasha Boyarsky and Maciej Rakowski, and currently studies violin at the Royal Academy of Music under the tutelage of So-Ock Kim. In addition, she plays viola and has a strong interest in historical performance practice, studying baroque violin with Nicolette Moonen. During recent years, Amber has taken part in masterclasses with such professors as Gerhard Schulz and András Keller at IMS Prussia Cove, Mauricio Fuks at the Kronberg Academy Masterclasses, Pavel Vernikov, and Kolja Blacher at the Carl Flesch Akademie.
