Described by the Chicago Tribune as “perhaps the most elegant, refined and beautifully expressive violinist on the planet,” Viktoria Mullova rose to international prominence after winning the International Jean Sibelius Violin Competition in 1980 and the Gold Medal at the International Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow in 1982. She has since established herself as one of the most acclaimed violinists of her time.
An iconic artist, she performs with the world’s leading orchestras and conductors, and is widely recognised for her uncompromising artistic integrity. Her repertoire spans from Bach to contemporary commissions, encompassing period-instrument baroque, Romantism, as well as ventures into jazz, world music and original cross-genre projects such as The Peasant Girl, Stradivarius in Rio and Das Verklärte Nacht.
Highlights of her 2026–27 season feature an extensive international focus on Beethoven in both recital and orchestral performances. Commemorating the 200th anniversary of the composer’s death, she continues her collaboration with pianist Alasdair Beatson, performing Beethoven’s complete violin sonatas. Their global tour spans major European venues—including London’s Wigmore Hall and Dijon Opera House —alongside an extended series of dates across Japan and China. This tour coincides with the release of their complete Beethoven Cycle on period instruments by Signum Records in October 2026.
Viktoria’s extensive discography has garnered widespread critical acclaim, featuring works ranging from Bach & Vivaldi through core classical & romantic repertoire, to the complete works of Arvo Pärt with Estonian National Symphony Orchestra and Paavo Järvi. Her recordings of the Vivaldi Concertos with Il Giardino Armonico and directed by Giovanni Antonini, Bach Sonatas with Ottavio Dantone & Beethoven’s Archduke Trio with André Previn and Heinrich Schiff have all received prestigious Diapason D’Or awards.
