Alexander Gilman

Violinist Alexander Gilman has been an important presence on the European scene as a soloist and chamber musician. He is the artistic director of the critically acclaimed LGT Young Soloists. After England's Classic FM proclaimed him "a name to watch" in 2007, Gilman has performed in top concert halls in Germany and elsewhere. The year 2007 also saw Gilman's debut recording, featuring music for violin and piano by Brahms, Prokofiev, Wieniawski, and Stephen Foster. In 2013, Gilman co-founded (with Marina Seltenreich) and was named conductor of the LGT Young Soloists, an ensemble of musicians aged 12 to 23 from more than 15 countries. Under Gilman, that group became the world's first youth orchestra signed to the RCA Red Seal label. In 2022, they moved to Philip Glass's Orange Mountain Music label for a recording of Glass's new Symphony No. 14.
