CHAMBER MUSICIAN AND ORCHESTRA MUSICIAN

Whether in a piano trio or an orchestra, I am continually fascinated by how many individual voices can merge into a single breath, a shared musical language. In rehearsals and concerts, it is a deeply moving experience to be part of something that is greater than the sum of its parts.

SOLOIST

Concerts are the most fulfilling experience for me: excitement and nervousness disappear as soon as I begin to play and feel the audience’s attention. Fully engaging in this exchange and sharing my innermost musical voice with the listeners brings me joy anew each time.

PEDAGOGUE

It fulfills me to inspire people to love music and to discover their own musical voice together with them. Joy in making music and curiosity are especially important to me. My self-illustrated cello method supports young students in growing on their instrument with patience and enjoyment.

VISUAL ARTIST

Drawing and painting have always fascinated me. Colors, shapes, and textures are means of expression for me that – like music – reveal inner worlds. And the best part: no neighbor has ever complained!

"The hypnotic focus of her playing, full of feeling, passion and tenderness, surpassed previous performances in expressiveness and conviction. Wagner demonstrated the highest technical understanding and her playing was perfect."
