Performing music from baroque to new commissions on both modern and period instruments, Alina Ibragimova is recognised for the “immediacy and honesty” of her performances.
The 2023/24 season sees Alina return to the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic, Netherlands Radio Philharmonic, Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin, Orchestre national de Belgique, Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, and to the Mahler Chamber Orchestra as artist-in-residence at their Hitzacker Festival. She will also debut with the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen and tour Europe with both the Scottish Chamber Orchestra and Kammerorchester Basel.
Over the last two seasons Alina has performed concertos with the Budapest Festival Orchestra, Pittsburgh Symphony, San Francisco Symphony, Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, London Symphony, Philharmonia Orchestra, London Philharmonic, Gürzenich-Orchester and Dresden Philharmonic, working with Robin Ticciati, Edward Gardner, Daniel Harding, Nathalie Stutzmann, Vladimir Jurowski and Maxim Emelyanychev among others.
In recital, Alina regularly performs at London’s Wigmore Hall, Amsterdam’s Concertgebouw, Berlin’s Pierre Boulez Saal, Salzburg’s Mozarteum, Hamburg’s Elbphilharmonie and at the Royal Albert Hall where she performed Bach’s Sonatas and Partitas for solo violin at part of the BBC Proms. She frequently collaborates with pianist Cédric Tiberghien, and is a founding member of the Chiaroscuro Quartet – one of the most sought-after period ensembles.
Alina’s discography on Hyperion Records ranges from Bach Concertos with Arcangelo through to Prokofiev Sonatas with Steven Osborne. Her 2020 recording of Shostakovich’s Violin Concertos won a Gramophone Award, while her 2021 recording of Paganini’s 24 Caprices topped the classical album charts on its release.
Born in Russia in 1985, Alina attended the Moscow Gnesin School, Yehudi Menuhin School and Royal College of Music, studying with Valentina Korolkova, Natasha Boyarsky, Gordan Nikolitch, Christian Tetzlaff and Adrian Butterfield for Historical Performance. An alumnus of the BBC New Generation Artists Scheme, Alina’s many accolades include two Royal Philharmonic Society awards and an MBE in the 2016 New Year Honours List.
