EDIN KARAMAZOV
Edin Karamazov was born in 1965 in Zenica, Bosnia and Herzegovina. A protĂ©gĂ© of conductor Sergiu Celibidache, he began his musical career as a classical guitarist before taking up the Baroque lute, which he studied with Hopkinson Smith at the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis in Basel. Karamazov made his solo debut as a lutenist in 1998, stepping in at the last minute for the legendary Julian Bream. Since then, he has established himself as todayâs most exciting and charismatic player of the lute. His thrilling virtuoso performances on the lute and guitar, with a repertoire that ranges from 16th-century classics to the music of today, have garnered rave reviews and unprecedented critical acclaim in Europe, Asia and the Americas. As a soloist he has performed and recorded with leading international early music ensembles and artists including the Hilliard Ensemble, HespĂšrion XXI, Andreas Scholl, Dorothee Oberlinger, Arpeggiata, English Baroque Soloists, Renee Fleming, as well as Chuck Israels, Wolfgang Muthspiel, Elvis Costello or Sting. A consummate interpreter and master technician on numerous early and contemporary stringed instruments, outstanding recital artist Edin Karamazov has appeared at numerous major venues, including the Amsterdam Concertgebouw, Londonâs Wigmore Hall, Berlinâs Philharmonie, Orchard Hall Tokyo, Viennaâs Konzerthaus, Salle Gaveau Paris, among many others. Looking back to his early days, he continues to enjoy giving impromptu performances on the street. Edin Karamazov plays several plucked instruments of various cultures and epochs and remains committed to exploring the use of lutes in modern music and contemporary improvisational contexts. Composers Erkki Sven-Tuur, Arvo PĂ€rt, Leo Brouwer and several others dedicated important guitar or lute works to Edin.
