Violinist, Nicole Razhanskiy

I am excited to offer my services for events with live classical music. I can provide background music or performances, and I have a network of skilled musicians to get musical groups together. We can offer various chamber music options, like string quartets and duets, as well as solo music, to enhance the atmosphere of your event.

I am a freshman at UNC Chapel Hill studying environmental science and violin music performance.

I started to study violin with my mother when I was four and a half years old. At the age of eight I continued lessons at the Kaufman Music Center’s Lucy Moses School with Viktor Basis.

Musical credentials:

- Currently holding the first stand of second violins in the UNC Symphony Orchestra, with a strong network for chamber music collaborations.
- Former concertmaster of the Norwalk Youth Symphony Principle Orchestra, which had the honor of performing at Carnegie Hall Stern Auditorium / Perelman Stage in 2023.
- Achievements include First Place at the Vivo International Competition, First Prize at the 2022 Vienna Grand Prize Virtuoso International Competition, and numerous other competition wins.
- Solo performances at prestigious venues like Merkin Hall and Carnegie Hall Weill Recital Hall in NYC.
- Currently involved in a piano trio and previously a member of a quartet that often held benefit concerts and played gigs at the Mather Homestead Foundation in Darien, CT.
- Experienced in providing musical accompaniment for holiday and church services.

I have no technical requirments during the service. I kindy ask of you to notify me of gigs in advance so that I can coordinate transportation logistics and confirm the availability of additional chamber musicians if desired!
