Biography
Eldbjørg Hemsing was born in Valdres, Norway in 1990. She started playing the violin at the age of five, and by the age of six, she was already playing violin for the Norwegian royal family. At the age of seven, she was accepted into the Barratt Due Institute of Music in Oslo, where she received lessons from Alf Richard Kraggerud and Stephan Barratt-Due. She also studied with Boris Kuschnir. In 2012, she performed at the Nobel Peace Prize Ceremony in Oslo.[1]
Hemsing started collaborating with Tan Dun after he asked her to perform his Hero Concerto with the Netherlands Symphony Orchestra and the MDR Leipzig Radio Symphony Orchestra. She premiered Tan Dun's 'Triple Resurrection Concerto' in Leipzig, and Shanghai with the Shanghai Philharmonic Orchestra. She premiered Tan Dun's violin concerto 'The Love' with the Trondheim Symphony Orchestra at the 2010 World Expo in Shanghai, and Tan Dun's violin concerto 'The Fire Rituals'[3] with the Chinese National Orchestra at the National Centre for the Performing Arts (China).[4][5]
She has played with the NDR Radiophilharmonie, the RTÉ National Symphony Orchestra, the Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra, the Norwegian Radio Orchestra, the Czech National Symphony Orchestra, and the Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra. She has appeared at the Bad Kissingen and AlpenKlassik festivals in Germany; International Chamber Music Festivals in Oslo, Stavanger, and Bergen; Wigmore Hall; Verbier Festival; Bellerive Festival; and the Nordic Cool Festival at the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C.[citation needed]
Hemsing's recording of a violin concerto by Hjalmar Borgstrøm with Wiener Symphoniker, directed by Olari Elts, was released worldwide by BIS in 2018.[1] Major appearances have included performances with Norwegian Arctic Philharmonic Orchestra (conductor Christian Lindberg); Szczecin Philharmonic (conductor Rune Bergmann); Bergen International Festival in Norway; and Paavo Järvi's Pärnu Festival in Estonia.[citation needed]
