LINDSAY DEUTSCH
Hailed by Jeffrey Kahane,
Musical Director of the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra, as "one of the most interesting, imaginative, and downright thrilling
young violinists in America today," and by the Los Angeles Times as having “the technical equipment and temperament for a big career,” American violinist Lindsay
Deutsch, 25, brings a fresh perspective to classical performances.
Taking the listening experience to
the next level, she plays with a passion and energy that has thrilled audiences throughout the United States and Canada.
The internationally known Strad Magazine featured Ms. Deutsch as their pick of “Up-and-Coming Musicians”
in its April 2007 issue. In January 2010, Symphony Magazine featured Ms. Deutsch for her
outreach work across the country.
Currently, Ms. Deutsch is the
Principal Guest Artist for
Orchestra Nova, and this season is touring the United States as a Live On Stage Artist. She is in demand as a soloist: upcoming
and recent performances include the prestigious Dame Myra Hess Memorial Concert Series in Chicago, appearances with more than
ten symphonies around the country including the Cape Cod, Las Cruces, Colorado and Forth Worth Symphonies, and a half dozen
chamber music performances including the Portland, McGill and Los Angeles Chamber Orchestras.
Ms. Deutsch made her Walt Disney Concert
Hall debut in Los Angeles performing John Corigliano’s Red Violin Chaconne
with the California Philharmonic. She made her first solo orchestral debut at the age of 11 with the Clear Lake Symphony in
Texas.
She has appeared in numerous venues
as a recitalist and chamber musician, and was honored by being invited to perform the theme from Schindler’s List for John Williams at a gala dinner in his honor. Her
movie credits include the solo violin soundtrack for the 2006 movie The Good Shepherd
starring Robert De Niro. She has also collaborated and is the featured “Pro” on the newly released See-Like-Me, Play Like a Pro DVD violin instruction series.
Ms.
Deutsch's performance of Astor Piazzolla's Four Seasons of Buenos Aires with
the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra was selected for NPR's Symphony Cast program. Ms. Deutsch has also appeared
as a soloist on the national radio program From the Top—her performance
of Bartok’s
Roumanian Folk Dances with Christopher O’Riley was selected for inclusion on the show’s “Best
of” CD. She has been featured in numerous other performances airing on several National Public Radio stations.
Ms. Deutsch feels strongly that young
people of today need to be exposed to the world of classical music. She is actively involved in outreach programs to present
classical music in new and exciting ways that will thrill and inspire the young audiences of today. In 2007, she and her sister,
Lauren, co-founded a non-profit organization, Classics Alive (www.ClassicsAlive.org), dedicated to building classical music
audiences.
Ms. Deutsch graduated from the Colburn Conservatory of Music, Los Angeles, with a Performance Diploma in violin. In
addition to her passion for music, Ms. Deutsch was a formidable racquetball player. She won the gold medal in the World Junior
Olympic Racquetball Championships in 1997 and was selected to the 2000 U.S. Junior Olympic Team.
