We reported yesterday that the Spanish violinist Raquel Areal Martinez had been admitted to the Berlin Philharmonic Orchsetra.
Also passing the audition was Eduardo Rios Silva, a violinist from Lima who is presently first assistant concertmaster of the Seattle Symphony Orchestra.
He is, we are reliably informed, the first Peruvian ever to take a seat in the Berlin Phil.
Both musicians will need to pass a year’s probation before being granted full membership.
The post Berlin Philharmonic’s next recruit is from Peru appeared first on Slippedisc.
