  • GIOVANNI GUZZO, Violin
    GIOVANNI GUZZO, violin “Guzzo’s technique was immaculate, and his Szymanowski was also stylish and driven. He ripped through the cadenza with terrific verve and left me wanting to hear much more from him”. Andrew Morris, Classicalsource 30 year old violinist Giovanni Guzzo is rapidly rising as one of the most versatile performers of his generation. Born in Venezuela to parents of Italian and Venezuelan heritage, he has captivated audiences around the world with his unique and passionate approach to his performances. Following his sensational solo debut with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in London, critics described him as a “wonderfully magnetic” and “commanding” performer. Giovanni started his musical studies with the piano at the age of five and violin at the age of six. At the age of 12 he became the youngest violinist to win the National Violin Competition “Juan Bautista Plaza” in Venezuela. A protégé of the renowned French virtuoso violinist Maurice Hasson, Giovanni was granted a scholarship to study at the Royal Academy of Music in London, from where he graduated with the highest honours. He previously studied with Zakhar Bron at the “Escuela Superior de Musica Reina Sofia” in Madrid. A keen recitalist and chamber musician, Giovanni has worked closely with some of today’s leading musicians, including Martha Argerich, Joshua Bell, Martin Fröst, Daniel Hope, Stephen Hough, Kristóf Baráti, Mats Lidstrom, Gábor Takács-Nagy, István Várdai, the Takacs Quartet and Maxim Vengerov, to name but a few. His talent has been recognised with numerous awards including Her Majesty the Queen’s commendation for Excellence, Gold medal at Marlow Music Festival, PROMIS award given by the London Symphony Orchestra, and the Manoug Parikian and Myra Hess award.

    Staatskapelle Dresden Staatskapelle Dresden Matthias Claudi PR und Marketing Theaterplatz 2 Christian Thielemann, Principal Conductor 01067 Dresden Germany Myung-Whun Chung, Principal Guest Conductor T 0351 4911 380 herberb Blomstedt, Conductor Laureate F 0351 4911 328 [email protected] Founded by Prince Elector Moritz von Sachsen in 1548, the Staatskapelle Dresden is one of the oldest orchestras in the world and steeped in tradition. Over its long history many distinguished conductors and internationally celebrated instrumentalists have left their mark on this onetime court orchestra. Previous directors include Heinrich Schütz, Johann Adolf Hasse, Carl Maria von Weber and Richard Wagner, who called the ensemble his »miraculous harp«. The list of prominent conductors of the last 100 years includes Ernst von Schuch, Fritz Reiner, Fritz Busch, Karl Böhm, Joseph Keilberth, Rudolf Kempe, Otmar Suitner, Kurt Sanderling, Herbert Blomstedt and Giuseppe Sinopoli. The orchestra was directed by Bernard Haitink from 2002-2004 and most recently by Fabio Luisi from 2007-2010. Principal Conductor since the 2012 / 2013 season has been Christian Thielemann. In May 2016 the former Principal Conductor Herbert Blomstedt received the title Conductor Laureate. This title has only been awarded to Sir Colin Davis before, who held it from 1990 until his death in April 2013. Myung-Whun Chung has been Principal Guest Conductor since the 2012 / 2013 season. Richard Strauss and the Staatskapelle were closely linked for more than sixty years. Nine of the composer’s operas were premiered in Dresden, including »Salome«, »Elektra« and »Der Rosenkavalier«, while Strauss’s »Alpine Symphony« was dedicated to the orchestra. Countless other famous composers have written works either dedicated to the orchestra or first performed in Dresden.

With her exceptional technique, versatility and acting talent Íride Martínez presents different roles of different styles and eras. Íride Martínez began her musical education in her native country Costa Rica. Then she had the unique opportunity to go to Europe. There celebrities such as Mirella Freni, Elio Battaglia and Wilma Lipp have taught her in acting and singing. For a Costa Rican, this is then as now inconceivable. Therefore Íride Martínez is for many of her fellow countrymen a great symbol. In 2014 she celebrated her 20th stage anniversary. Recent appearances include her long awaited Japan debut with the Yomiuri Nippon Symphony Orchestra touring through the country's most important concert halls with Beethoven's SYMPHONY NO. IX, further, again an invitation to Semperoper Dresden as Fiakermilli in ARABELLA under Christian Thielemann. Until 2016, Íride was a member of the Vienna State Opera where she excelled as Queen of the night, Gilda and especially as Marie in LA FILLE DU RÉGIMENT side by side with star tenor Juan Diego Flórez. After her debut with Norina in DON PASQUALE in 1994 at the Teatro dell'Opera di Roma, from 1995 to 2002 Íride was a permanent member of the ensemble at the Cologne Opera. For her Viola/Cesario at the World Premiere of WAS IHR WOLLT by M.
