Axel Strauss


The first German artist ever to win the international Naumburg Violin Award in New York, Axel Strauss made his American début at the Library of Congress in Washington DC and his New York début at Alice Tully Hall in 1998. Since then he has given recitals in major North American cities, including Boston, Chicago, Cleveland, Los Angeles and San Francisco. In 2007 he was the violinist in the world première of Two Awakenings and a Double Lullaby, written for him by Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Aaron Jay Kernis. Axel Strauss has performed as soloist with orchestras in Budapest, Hamburg, New York, Seoul, Shanghai, Bucharest, San Francisco and Cincinnati, among others, and toured widely throughout the world as a recitalist and in chamber music. He has lived in the United States since 1996, and maintains a busy performance schedule, serving as Professor of Violin at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. He has also served as guest concertmaster of the Berlin Philharmonic and the Montreal Symphony. Axel Strauss plays an outstanding violin by JF Pressenda, Turin 1845, on extended loan through the generous efforts of the Stradivari Society in Chicago.
