The violinist Robert Lakatoš and clarinettist Arthur Stockel will be performing as soloists this evening, together with the Slovenian Youth Orchestra under the baton of Živa Ploj Peršuh. The Serbian violinist Robert Lakatoš was the youngest violin student at the Music Academy in his native Novi Sad, where he now works as a lecturer. He continued his studies at the High School for Music in Zürich, as well as studying under Julian Rachlin at the University of Music and Performing Arts in Vienna. Lakatoš is also a winner of the renowned Pablo Sarasate International Violin Competition. The French clarinettist Arthur Stockel has become known as a passionate and eclectic musician thanks to his virtuosity and a multi-faceted career as soloist, chamber musician and orchestra member. At the age of 21 he was named chief clarinettist of the Luxembourg Philharmonic Orchestra, and is one of the leading classical artists of his generation. Stockel trained with the Gustav Mahler Jugendorchester, as part of the Mahler Chamber Orchestra Academy, and performed under the baton of conductors such as Daniel Harding, Valery Gergiev, Antonio Pappano and Vladimir Jurowski.
