Petra Mullejans is an esteemed violinist and conductor, most well-known for her excellence in the arena of Baroque music. As a prominent figure in historical performance practice, Mullejans has dedicated a considerable part of her career to interpreting works from the Baroque and Classical periods with scholarly insight and artistic sensitivity. Her expertise particularly shines in her renditions of Johann Sebastian Bach's compositions, as evidenced by her recordings of "Bach: Cantata, BWV 199," "Bach: Cantatas for Soprano," and "Bach: Violin Concertos," among others.

A versatile musician, Petra has a broad discography that showcases her flexibility and depth as an artist. This includes collaborations on "Mozart: Piano Concertos K.453 & 482," which highlight her dynamic interplay with the fortepiano as part of an ensemble, and reflective ventures into Joseph Haydn's works with albums like "Haydn: Symphonies No. 6 – 8" and "Haydn: Cello Concertos Nos. 1 & 2." Her partnership with Freiburger Barockorchester, where she stands as one of the orchestra's leaders and artistic directors, has further solidified her reputation as a connoisseur of interpretive grace and precision in the performance of classical music. Through her numerous recordings and live performances, Petra Mullejans has not only preserved the rich legacies of Baroque and Classical masters but has also enlivened them for new generations of listeners.
