Label news: Decca expands kindergarten

The Universal-owned UK label today signed a violinist, aged 13.

Her name is Himari and she’s from Japan. She’s due to make her European debut with the Berlin Philharmonic in the first Wieniawski concerto on Thursday.

Himari joins the Australian-Chinese Christian Lie, who was signed by Decca in 2020 when he was 12 years old.

 

UPDATE: In other biz news…
Intermusica New York is delighted to welcome Canadian pianist Sophia Liu, 16, to its roster for worldwide general management…. While it is unusual for the agency to take on an artist so young, every care will be taken to ensure that Sophia Liu’s career is nurtured safely.
