Alexander Gilman

Alexander Gilman is a dynamic violinist and conductor known for blending classical rigor with contemporary flair. As concertmaster of the Liechtenstein Symphony Orchestra and a sought-after soloist, he’s carved a niche for himself with inventive projects like *Beethoven Recomposed* and cross-genre collaborations, including works by living composers like Airat Ichmouratov. His recent releases—from the crystalline minimalism of Philip Glass’s *Symphony No. 14* to the tender *Liebesleid* arrangement—showcase his versatility and knack for reinventing both old masters and modern voices.

With a discography that hops from Romantic-era gems (*Schubert & Airat Ichmouratov: Works for Strings*) to genre-defying travelogues (*Italian Journey*), Gilman treats strings like a storyteller’s tool. Whether leading orchestras or improvising onstage, he balances technical precision with emotional immediacy, earning praise for recordings like *Nordic Dream* and live performances that feel both intimate and epic. Bonus points for making encore pieces (*Hora Staccato*) sound freshly minted every time.
