Vilde Frang

Vilde Frang has been among the most prominent and versatile Scandinavian violinists of the 21st century. She came on the scene as a teenage prodigy and has fulfilled the promise shown by the many awards she earned. In 1998, Frang met violinist Anne-Sophie Mutter, who became an important mentor and inspiration. She was named EMI Classics' Young Artist of the Year in 2010 after making her recording debut that year. Frang has also been an active chamber music player, and not only with Mutter: her partners include pianists Martha Argerich and Mitsuko Uchida and violinist Gidon Kremer. In 2019, Frang issued an album of music by Paganini and Schubert. Frang returned in 2022 with a recording of violin concertos by Beethoven and Stravinsky.
