One of the finest young cellists of his generation and winner of the 2012 TONALi Grand Prix in Hamburg, Alexey Stadler will open his 17/18 season with appearances in a number of high level engagements across Europe, amongst them Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra, BBC National Orchestra of Wales, Haydn Orchestra Bolzano and Trento, Orquesta Filarmonica de Gran Canaria, St. Petersburg Philharmonic Orchestra and Slovak Radio Symphony Orchestra.

He caused a sensation in his BBC Proms debut with Shostakovich’s Cello Concerto No. 1 with Vasily Petrenko. Other highly succesful debuts include Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin, San Francisco Symphony and Orchestra della Svizzera Italiana, both with Vladimir Ashkenazy, and the Tokyo Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra as well as the Young Philharmonic Orchestra Jerusalem Weimar, both under the baton of Michael Sanderling.
