“A violinist ahead of his time” was the headline above the Washington Post’s review of Anton Barakhovsky’s debut recital at the Kennedy Center in 1998. When he was only six years of age, Barakhovsky, born in 1973 in Novosibirsk, appeared as soloist with the symphony orchestra in his home town.
By this time, he had already received a number of major awards. At the age of twelve, Anton Barakhovsky was a prize-winner at the “Concertino Praga” radio competition; at 13 he won a prize at the International Competition in Beijing. In 1990 he won fourth prize at the Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow, and in 1994 second prize at the Joseph Joachim Competition in Hanover.
The violinist has performed with a number of top orchestras, such as the Novosibirsk Philharmonic (under Anton Katz), the St Petersburg Philharmonic and the Russian National Orchestra (under Mikhail Pletnev), the Perlin Symphony, the NDR Symphony Orchestra (under Arnold Östmann), the Orquestra Sinfónica de Santiago, the New York Chamber Orchestra (under Lawrence Leighton Smith) and the Hamburg Philharmonic (under Wolfgang Sawallisch).
In 1999 he performed the Sonata for Two Violins by Sergei Prokofiev on a CD as the duet partner of violinist Vadim Repin, recorded in the Louvre and released on Erato label. From 2001 to 2009 Anton Barakhovsky was principal concert master of the Philharmonic State Orchestra in Hamburg. As of October of 2009, Anton Barakhovsky serves as principal concert master of the Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks.
