Latica Honda-Rosenberg established herself in the concert world at a very young age, as one of the first members of her generation to do so. She studied at the Hochschule für Musik in Detmold, the Reina Sofía School of Music in Madrid and the University of Music Lübeck. Winning the silver medal at the Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow in 1998 paved the way for an international career. Complementing her worldwide activities on the concert platform, she has taught violin at the Hochschule für Musik in Freiburg since 2003 and at the Berlin University of the Arts since 2009. She will be accompanied by the Polish pianist Zuzanna Basinska, a laureate of numerous international piano competitions and a recipient of prestigious state prizes in Poland, who currently teaches at the Berlin University of the Arts and in Szczecin.
Božo Paradžik is a graduate of the Academy of Music in Prague. After his studies he went on to hold principal positions with various leading orchestras. Since 2000, when he released his debut album on EMI, he has built an impressive career as a soloist. He has taught double bass at the Hochschule für Musik in Freiburg since 2003 and at the School of Music of the University of Applied Sciences and Arts in Lucerne – where he lives – since 2010. His YouTube videos have been viewed more than 3.5 million times. Appearing alongside Božo Paradžik will be Annalisa Orlando, an Italian pianist with a particular affinity for chamber music. The winner of numerous prizes who completed her musical studies with the highest honours, she has been employed as an accompanist in the Strings Department at the Hochschule für Musik in Freiburg since 2019.
