About Rachel Barton Pine
Rachel Barton Pine is a multi-recording solo artist, with thirty-nine entries to her discography, and a world-touring soloist performing concerti and Baroque programs with the world’s leading orchestras including the Philadelphia, Royal Philharmonic, Camerata Salzburg, Chicago, Vienna, and Detroit symphonies. Described in the Washington Post as "an exciting, boundary-defying performer . . ." and The New York Times as "Striking and charismatic… (with) a bravura technique and soulful musicianship," she has worked with renowned conductors, including Teddy Abrams, Marin Alsop, Semyon Bychkov, Neeme Järvi, Erich Leinsdorf, Sir Neville Marriner, Nicholas McGegan, Zubin Mehta, Tito Muñoz, and John Nelson, and has collaborated with artists such as Daniel Barenboim, Christoph Eschenbach, and William Warfield. She has appeared with the Seattle Symphony as guest soloist and conductor in its Baroque series, and her recordings can be heard frequently on KING FM and Northwest Public Radio. Her festival appearances include Marlboro, Ravinia, Montreal, Wolf Trap, Vail, Davos, and Salzburg's Mozartwoche at the invitation of Franz Welser-Möst.
Ms. Barton Pine is a significant contributor to both the composition and performance of new music and the development of underserved promising performers and composers through the Rachel Barton Pine Foundation for which she has received the Studs Terkel Humanities Service Award. She has also been given the 2012 Karl Haas Prize for Music Education for this work and her many other education-related efforts.
Barton Pine frequently performs music by contemporary composers, including major works written for her by Billy Childs, Mohammed Fairouz, Marcus Goddard, Earl Maneein, Shawn E. Okpebholo, Daniel Bernard Roumain, José Serebrier, and Augusta Read Thomas, including concertos by Fairouz, Goddard, and Maneein. In the 22/23 season, she premiered "Violin Concerto No. 2," written for her by Billy Childs through a co-commission by the Grant Park Music Festival, the Boulder Philharmonic Orchestra, the Anchorage Symphony Orchestra, and the Interlochen Orchestra.
Barton Pine performs on the "ex-Bazzini, ex-Soldat" Joseph Guarnerius "del Gesù" (Cremona 1742), on a lifetime loan from her anonymous patron.
