 Maria Kliegel (cello)
After studying with Janos Starker at Indiana University in Bloomington, USA, Maria Kliegel won, amongst others, the 1st Grand Prix of the “Concours Rostropowich Paris” (in 1981). Mstislav Rostropowich thereupon engaged the services of his prize winner as a soloist with the Orchestre National de France for several tours through France and invited her to his orchestra in Washington D.C. He became one of her most important mentors.
Maria Kliegel – La Cellissima – since then an artist in demand throughout the world -started an unusually successful record career on the Naxos label in 1991 alongside her stage triumphs.In this way, her recording of Dvorak’s and Elgar’s cello concertos with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra London has been maintaining its success as a bestseller for many years now. Also, the composer Alfred Schnittke declared her recording of his 1st cello concerto his reference work in 1992. In reviews and essays, the international press is constantly confirming the top quality of the violoncellist and praises many interpretations as exemplary and directional.
Frequent honours followed, including 2 Grammy nominations. In the meantime, Maria Kliegel leads the market in cello literature with some 1 million CDs sold throughout the world. In her multimedia book and DVD project Schott Master Class – Cello With technique and phantasy for artistic expression about cello techniques and “famous – infamous” passages (played and analysed) published in 2006, she pursues completely new paths; and within the shortest time received 2 prestigious prizes for it: in February 2007 in Düsseldorf the special Digita prize (best German educational software) and in June 2007 in Berlin the European Media Prize Comenius EduMedia – Siegel.
Contemporary composers like to dedicate their works to the cellist. Wilhelm Kaiser Lindemann, for example, composed at her request Hommage á Nelson M. for cello and percussion. This musical reference to the civil-rights activist Mandela finds great attention internationally. After the premiere of this work in Capetown, South Africa in 1997.
Since 1986 she has been professor at the Cologne Academy of Music and in 2001 established with Ida Bieler (volin) and Nina Tichman (piano) the Xyrion Trio, which undertook the artistic supervision of the Andernach Music Festival at Namedy Castle in 2007. Maria Kliegel plays the Stradivari cello Ex Gendron from 1693, on loan from the Artistic Endowment of North-Rhine Westphalia.
