Premysl Vojta
Horn player Přemysl Vojta has been active as a performer and educator in Western Europe as well as in his native Czech Republic. He is an enthusiastic chamber music player with a list of well-known collaborators.
Vojta was born in Brno, then in Czechoslovakia, in 1983. He started horn lessons at the Brno Music school at age ten with Olga Voldánová. As a youth, he was also a competitive swimmer and had to choose between sports and music. Vojta attended the Prague Conservatory from 1998 to 2004, studying with Bedřich Tylšar. He went on to the Berlin University of the Arts from 2004 to 2010; there, his principal teacher was Christian-Friedrich Dallmann. While still in school, Vojta had already begun his professional career, landing a position as principal hornist with the Konzerthaus Orchestra in Berlin. He released his debut album in 2005, joining the Pražák Quartet on the Praga label for an album of chamber music by Krzysztof Penderecki. In 2010, he won the International ARD Music Competition.
In 2015, Vojta joined the WDR Symphony Orchestra in Cologne, Germany, as principal hornist. He continued to hold that position as of the mid-2020s while amassing a strong record as a solo player. Vojta has appeared as a soloist with such world-class ensembles as the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra, the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields in London, and the Kanagawa Symphony Orchestra in Japan. A passionate chamber music player, he is a member of the PhilHarmonia Octet, the Carousel Ensemble, the Breeze Wind Quintet, and other groups, and he has collaborated with such artists as clarinetist Annelien van Wauwe, pianist Oliver Triendl, and the Armida Quartet. In 2023, Vojta joined pianist Florence Millet and violinist Ye Wu on the CAvi-Music album Modern Horn Trios, and the same trio returned the following year on the album John Cage: Music for Three.
