Biography
Sylvia Demgenski
Sharing music in all its complexity and emotional power is one of the most important experiences for cellist and baroque cellist Sylvia Demgenski.
Her playing style, both sensitive and passionate, characterises her work with various ensembles such as the ‘Duo Raimondi Demgenski’, ‘Duo Mousiké’, ‘Trio Radiant’, BaroqueLAB Frankfurt and the ‘Kammerphilharmonie Frankfurt’. She recently launched her own concert series ‘Barock²’, was director of the ‘1:1 CONCERTS der Freien Klassikszene Frankfurt’ and was artistic director of the chamber music festival ‘Les Müsicales de Saint-Faust’ in 2023.
A foundational source of inspiration, both musical and personal, was her time studying with Prof. Kristin von der Goltz, with whom she completed her master's degree in baroque cello in 2020. Prof. Enrico Bronzi at the University Mozarteum in Salzburg opened up new and profound perspectives on the handling of musical material during her master's degree on the modern instrument, and with Xenia Jankovic at the HfM Detmold she received the fundamental training that defines her as a musician today. Other formative encounters include those with musicians such as Michael Schneider, András Schiff and Jesper Christensen.
In her free time, Sylvia enjoys spending time in nature and feeling deeply connected to the world. Since 2023 she is the proud mother of a wonderful little boy.
