Raphaela Gromes
Among Germany's most prominent cellists of her generation, Raphaela Gromes was signed to the Sony Classical label in 2016. She often performs in a duo with pianist Julian Riem.
Gromes was born on March 16, 1991, in Munich. Both of her parents, Wilhelm Gromes and Astrid Hedler-Gromes, were cellists, and she took up the cello at age four, studying with her mother. Her parents performed as the Nymphenburger Celloduo, and when she was seven, Raphaela began joining them on stage for encores and the like. In 2005, Gromes made her concert debut, performing Friedrich Gulda's Cello Concerto. The following year, she enrolled at the Musikhochschule Leipzig, studying cello with Peter Bruns while also taking general classes at the Camerloher-Gymnasium in Freising. She went on to the Musikhochschule München in 2010, studying with Wen-Sinn Yang, and then to the University of Music and Performing Arts in Vienna, where her teacher was Reinhard Latzko. Her studies were helped along by funding from the German Academic Scholarship Foundation and other groups.
In addition to standard cello works by Dvořák, Elgar, and Saint-Saëns, Gromes' repertory includes more unusual pieces, old and new, by Luigi Boccherini and by contemporary composers, including Dominik Giesriegl, Valentin Bachmann, and Mario Bürki. In 2011, she began performing as the Duo Servais with violinist Amelie Böckheler, and the following year, in what became an established duo, with pianist Julian Riem. The latter pair made their recording debut on Farao Classics in 2014 with an album of cello sonatas by Mendelssohn and Richard Strauss. Gromes was signed to Sony Classical in 2016, and with Riem, she released the album Serenata Italiana the following year, featuring works by late Romantic Italian composers. Gromes and Riem toured South Korea in 2018. That year, her Hommage à Rossini album featured orchestral accompaniment from the WDR Funkhausorchester, and she has issued several more albums on Sony Classical, including the recital Imagination in 2021.
