Alma Deutscher has been praised by Zubin Mehta as “one of the greatest musical talents today”. Born in 2005, she has been featured around the world as a composer, violinist, pianist and conductor since an exceptionally young age. She started playing the piano when she was two years old and the violin when she was three. At six, she composed her first piano sonata, and at nine a concerto for violin and orchestra. At the age of ten she composed her first opera titled “Cinderella”. In 2019 Alma Deutscher received the European Culture Prize in a ceremony at the Vienna State Opera and was elected by the German Magazine Stern as one of twelve ‘Heroes of Tomorrow’. In the same year she made her Carnegie Hall  debut in New York to standing ovations. Her opera, Cinderella, has been performed on three continents to sold-out houses and released on DVD by Sony Classical and by the Vienna State Opera. Alma Deutscher has appeared as a soloist playing her own compositions with the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra, the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, the Mozarteum Orchestra, Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra and the Shenzhen Symphony Orchestra, among others. She has also performed at the Lucerne Festival, Aix-en-Provence Festival and the Beijing Music Festival. Her extraordinary talents have been featured in the New York Times, China Daily and many of Europe’s major newspapers. In 2017 she was featured in a BBC Documentary and a CBS documentary. Her first piano solo album, From My Book of Melodies, was released by Sony Classical and is published by G. Schirmer.
