BIRGIT KOLAR
violin
Innovator, Trailblazer, taboo breaker…
As the first ever female concertmaster of a major Austrian orchestra, her path as an internationally acclaimed soloist, chamber musician and orchestra leader began. The perpetual challenge of conveying the music to the listener in the most authentic way possible, of setting the quest for sound as her highest aim, to serve as instrument to the music and the composer in every moment, even transcending norms and traditions to do so – all this brings her an ever tempestuous but all the more diverse professional life.
