CONCERTS

Alda Dizdari is an outstanding musician of immense diversity. Since her triumphant debut at the Wigmore Hall she has appeared on all the major concert venues in the UK and has been a regular guest on BBC Radio 3 and Radio 4 programmes.

In 2015 she embarked on a tour promoting Elgar’s Violin Concerto in Eastern Europe including giving the premiere in her native country Albania. She recorded her journey in a book: “Kiss Me Agin; A Memoir of Elgar in Unusual Places”,  which was launched in 2018, and received high acclaim. In 2019 she recorded the concerto in Moscow with Musica Viva Orchestra and conductor Alexander Walker.

Alongside her successful solo career Alda is a passionate teacher, currently teaching in two of the leading music schools in the country, the Purcell School and Guildhall School of Music and Drama. She is also the founder of DEA Music Academy, a community project in the borough of Southwark in London that helps children, some from disadvantage backgrounds and with learning difficulties, achieve higher goals by offering ‘A Conservatoire Tradition with a Community Feeling’

Alda plays a GB Ceruti Violin, Cremona 1791 bought specially for her by a private sponsor and a Dominique Peccatte Bow on loan from the Stradivari Trust, UK.
