From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Françoise Groben (4 December 1965 – 28 May 2011) was a Luxembourgish cellist who performed widely and won several awards. She made recordings for radio, television and CDs.[1]

Biography

Born on 4 December 1965 in Luxembourg City, Groben first studied the cello with Georges Mallach at the Conservatoire de Luxembourg. She continued with Boris Pergamenshikov at the Musikhochschule, Cologne, and subsequently with William Pleeth, Daniil Shafran, as well as with members of the Amadeus Quartet. In 1990 she won 2nd prize in the International Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow.[2][3]

She played with a number of prestigious orchestras including the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra, the NHK Symphony Orchestra, Leningrad Philharmonic, Jerusalem Symphony Orchestra, and the Russian State Orchestra and participated in many music festivals around the globe. In 1998, she became the cellist in the Zehetmair Quartet founded by Thomas Zehetmair, playing in Lisbon, Munich, Leipzig, Cologne, Salzburg, Paris, Brussels, Vienna and Berlin as well as on tour in the United States, Australia and the Far East.
