Barbara Buntrock
Violist Barbara Buntrock won her country's popular Jugeng musiziert ("Youth Making Music") competition five times during her student years. She has been heard on recordings as both a soloist and a chamber player, and she is an important educator.
Buntrock was born in Wuppertal, Germany, on February 18, 1982. Her first instrument was the violin, which she took up at the age of five. In 1991, Buntrock began studying at the Bergische Musikschule Wuppertal with Maria Szabados-Racz, and she remained her student for many years. In tandem with her competition wins, Buntrock served as a member of Germany's Bundesjugendorchester from 1998 to 2000, rising to the rank of deputy concertmaster. In 2001, Buntrock switched to the viola, enrolling at the Wuppertal branch of the Hochschule für Musik und Tanz Köln. Her teacher there was Werner Dickel. She went on to the Lübeck Academy of Music, studying with Barbara Westphal and earning a concert diploma in 2008. Buntrock also spent a year at the Juilliard School in New York, had further instruction at the Hochschule für Musik Hanns Eisler in Berlin, and attended several chamber music master classes. Winning a series of major German prizes in the 2000s decade, Buntrock released her debut recording in 2011 on the MDG label, joining the Leipziger Streichquartett on an album of Beethoven string quintets.
In 2009 and 2010, Buntrock was first solo violist with the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra. She has appeared as a soloist with such German groups as the Stuttgarter Kammerorchester, the Sinfonieorchester Wuppertal, and the Bochumer Symphoniker. In her hometown of Wuppertal, Buntrock founded the chamber music series Festival 3 at the city's Immanuelskirche. She recorded viola-based chamber music and concertos for the CAvi-Music, CPO, and Capriccio labels in the 2010s, returning on CAvi-Music in 2024 as part of a group on the album Serenade for clarinet and strings: Krenek, Gál, Penderecki. Buntrock has been professor of viola at the Robert Schumann Hochschule in Düsseldorf since 2015.
