It is a great honor for me to be awarded the newly established Performers’ Prize by the GNM. The appreciative words of the jury mean a great deal to me, so I would like to share them here:

“Her charismatic stage presence, interpretive brilliance and technical excellence, her performative versatility and spirit of innovation, the breadth, diversity, and quality of her repertoire—largely owed to her personal commitment—her pedagogical fervor in bringing the instrument closer to new generations of composers, all come together to form a body of work that already today constitutes a lifetime achievement which the GNM jury deems truly worthy of this award.”

I look forward to the award ceremony on October 7 in Berlin.
