In her young career she has already worked with such famous soloists as Arabella Steinbacher, Daniel Müller-Schott and Sabine Meyer.

Zakhar Bron Festival Orchestra
In the Zakhar Bron Chamber Orchestra, founded in 2011, Zakhar Bron brings together international master students, all aspiring soloists with promising perspectives, to form a unique ensemble. The orchestra impresses with a musical quality and virtuosity that is almost unbeatable. An interplay of perfection, dedication and passion. In 2015 the orchestra made its debut in the Berlin Philharmonic, the Cologne Philharmonic and the Concertgebouw Amsterdam. The ensemble, expanded into a symphony orchestra for Interlaken Classics, performed with famous artists such as Sabine Meyer, Alice Sara Ott, Daniel Hope, Natalia Gutman, Konstantin Lifschitz and Mischa Maisky. A tour to mark Zakhar Bron's 70th birthday took the orchestra from Baden to Berlin, Düsseldorf and Rotterdam in December 2017. Many former students such as Maxim Vengerov, David Garrett and Vadim Repin appeared as soloists.
