Artist Bio

Ingrid Fliter made her American orchestra debut with the Atlanta Symphony in January 2006, just days after the announcement of her 2006 Gilmore Artist Award. Since then she has performed solo recitals and with orchestras around the U.S. and throughout Europe, Asia and South America. Born in Buenos Aires in 1973, she made her professional orchestra debut at the Teatro Colon in Buenos Aires at the age of 16. An exclusive EMI recording artist, Fliter’s first CD, an all-Chopin disc, was released in April 2008. Her second EMI recording of the complete Chopin Waltzes was released this fall. (To purchase it, click here to go to EMI Classics' web site.) Both Fliter and her new recording have been receiving rave reviews:

Tim Parry at BBC Music Magazine gave a double 5* rating for Fliter’s performance and recording: “Once again her playing magically combines a personalised poetic impulse with an exhilaratingly choreographed virtuosity… Fliter’s account can compare with the best, and she has been superbly recorded.” (Tim Parry, BBC Music Magazine, Christmas 2009)

“Ingrid Fliter sets a new benchmark for the complete waltzes. From beginning to end, this is among the finest Chopin recordings of recent years…. Each waltz emerges as if a great actress were reading a short story, each with its own colour and character. Fliter’s “timing” is judged to perfection; her tempi are near ideal; she never loses sight of Chopin the poet or reinvents him as a red-blooded virtuoso.” (Jeremy Nicholas, Gramophone Magazine, December 2009)
