Violinist Viviane Hagner arrived on the international scene at the age of 13 in a major way by performing in Tel Aviv with the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra under the baton of Zubin Mehta for a joint concert between the Berlin and Israel Philharmonics. Hagner has since gone on to perform with leading orchestras and conductors throughout Europe and the U.S. She is active as a chamber musician and is a noted educator. In 2003, Hagner made her recording debut with an album of works by Beethoven, Saint-Saëns, and Schubert, accompanied by her sister Nicole. In 2009, Viviane issued a recording of Unsuk Chin's Violin Concerto. Hagner joined the dogma chamber orchestra for the second volume of its Mendelssohn Project in 2021, on which she performed the composer's Violin Concerto in D minor.
