Michael Barenboim
Known for his performances of contemporary music, violinist Michael Barenboim has established a career independent of that of his famous father, conductor Daniel Barenboim. The two have also performed and recorded together.
The son of Daniel Barenboim and pianist Yelena Bashkirova (and the brother of hip-hop producer David Barenboim), Michael Barenboim was born in Paris in 1985. He began playing the piano at age four and switched to the violin when his family moved to Berlin in 1992. His teachers there were Abraham Jaffe and Axel Wilczok. Michael's professional career began early, and that was due not only to his father's influence but to his pathbreaking spirit: when he was 15, he was recruited for the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra, his father's ensemble that united Palestinian and Israeli musicians and was named for a book of poetry by J.W. von Goethe that explored themes from the Islamic world. The younger Barenboim distinguished himself in that orchestra and, in 2003, was named its concertmaster. He has continued in that role while developing a solo career independent of his father's work.
Barenboim has appeared with the Berlin Philharmonic (playing Schoenberg's Violin Concerto, Op. 36), the Chicago Symphony, the Israel Philharmonic, the Bavarian Radio Symphony, and the Guangzhou and Shanghai Symphony Orchestras, among many other major ensembles in Europe and elsewhere. His solo recitals have been heard at the Barbican and Wigmore Hall in London, Carnegie Hall in New York, and the Pierre Boulez Saal in Berlin. Barenboim has collaborated with Boulez in performances and has recorded both of his solo Anthèmes for the Accentus label. He is also an enthusiastic chamber player and, in 2018, recorded an album of Mozart piano quartets with his father, Yulia Deyneka, and Kian Soltani for the Deutsche Grammophon label. Permutations of that group recorded albums of piano trios by Mozart and Beethoven, also on Deutsche Grammophon, and father and son joined with pianist Martha Argerich and the Staatskapelle Berlin for an album of works by Debussy in 2021. As an educator, Barenboim has given many master classes and serves as head of chamber music at the Barenboim-Said Academy in Berlin. In 2023, he recorded Elgar's Violin Concerto in B minor, Op. 61, with the Philharmonia Orchestra under conductor Alessandro Crudele on the Linn Records label.
