MIRIAM

Miriam is equally at home performing in the world’s finest concert halls as she is
bringing her passion for the violin to audiences closer to home. She has appeared as
a soloist and chamber musician at London venues such as the Barbican Hall, the
Royal Albert Hall and the Wigmore Hall, has been invited as a Guest Principal and
Leader of orchestras in the UK and abroad, and was formerly a member of London
Mozart Players.
Notable awards have included the prestigious Julius Isserlis Scholarship from the
Royal Philharmonic Society and the Rose Bowl in the Guildhall Gold Medal
competition. Miriam was a semi-finalist in BBC Young Musician of the Year 1996 and
her performances were broadcast on national television. A graduate of the Guildhall
School of Music and Drama in London and of the Paris Conservatoire, Miriam has
been fortunate to study with the renowned teachers and violinists Boris Garlitski,
Jean-Jaques Kanterow, Mark Knight, Sheila Nelson and David Takeno and in Paris,
had the privilege of collaborating as an orchestral leader with legendary composer
and conductor, Pierre Boulez, an experience she considers formative.
Miriam is a founder member and leader of Ensemble Reza, a flourishing chamber
ensemble based in West Sussex. She enjoys exploring the work of living composers,
and was recently the dedicatee of Fantasy Suite for Solo Violin by British composer,
Julian Broughton. In 2023 Miriam will perform the Dvorak Violin Concerto with the
Mid-Sussex Sinfonia.
