Ulf Wallin
Ulf Wallin is a Swedish violinist, educator, and prolific recording artist who has appeared on over 50 albums. He is also a champion for new music and has collaborated with several important composers of the 20th century including Rodion Shchedrin, Alfred Schnittke, and Anders Eliasson.
Wallin was born in 1960 in Växjö, Sweden, and he studied violin with Sven Karpe at the Royal Academy of Music in Stockholm. This was followed by further studies with Wolfgang Schneiderhan in Vienna at the University of Music and Performing Arts. After his graduation, he began touring as a recitalist and concerto soloist, and he performed at major venues in Europe, Asia, and the U.S. Wallin became a professor at the Hochschule für Musik Hanns Eisler Berlin in 1996, and by this time he had recorded the complete violin and piano repertoire of Paul Hindemith, Leos Janácek, and Bo Linde. The following year, he began recording the complete violin music of Max Reger, Karl Goldmark, and Johannes Brahms. He kept a similarly relentless pace throughout the 2000s and released an additional 18 albums on the BIS, CPO, and Stradivarius labels. Wallin's critically acclaimed recordings of the music of Robert Schumann -- Schumann: Complete Works for Violin and Orchestra and Robert Schumann: The Violin Sonatas -- led to being awarded the Robert Schumann Prize of the City of Zwickau in 2013. He was also elected into the Royal Swedish Academy of Music in the following year. Wallin's recordings of the 2010s explored the music of Tor Aulin, and Franz Liszt, and his releases in the 2020s include Johannes Brahms: The Five Sonatas for Violin & Piano, Vol. 2 and Allan Pettersson: Concerto for Violin & String Quartet; String Trio & Works for Violin and Piano.
