Deborah Nemtanu
concertmaster
Born into a family passionately devoted to music, Deborah Nemtanu began studying the violin at the age of four. Her career has been distinguished by success from an early age and remarkable artistic versatility.
After unanimously winning a prize in 2001 at the CNSMD in Paris, she went on to receive fourth prize at the Jacques-Thibaud International Competition and was selected for the prestigious Perlman Music Program in the United States. In 2008, she was awarded second prize at the Benjamin Britten International Competition in London.
Since 2005, she has held the position of concertmaster with the Orchestre de Chambre de Paris. Curious and passionate, she takes her artistry further by occasionally conducting the orchestra herself, fostering a close dialogue between soloist and ensemble, and bringing an authentically chamber-like spirit to the concerto.
