Anastasia Kobekina
Cellist Anastasia Kobekina has won important prizes, including one at the International Tchaikovsky Competition. She has appeared with top orchestras internationally and has been signed to the Sony Classical label.
Kobekina was born on August 26, 1994, in Yekaterinburg, Russia. Her father was the composer Vladimir Kobekin, and her family was musical. Kobekina took up the cello at age four. In 2006, she was admitted to the Moscow Conservatory, studying with Olga Galochkina. Kobekina made an impact with prizes abroad, including at the Vienna Eurovision Young Musicians Competition in 2008. After taking a master class with cellist and Mstislav Rostropovich student David Geringas, she won the Landgrave of Hesse Prize in Kronberg, Germany, in 2010. In 2012, she entered the Kronberg Academy, studying with Frans Helmerson. In 2016, she continued her studies at the Universität der Künste Berlin, where her teacher was Jens Peter Maintz, and she went on to the Conservatoire de Paris (CNSMDP) for studies with Jérôme Pernoo and to the Hochschule fur Musik und darstellende Kunst Frankfurt am Main to work with Kristin von der Goltz. She continued to study with Pernoo and von der Goltz as of the mid-2020s. In 2014, Kobekina made her recording debut; she was heard with other young cellists on the Profil album Focus Cello. In the late 2010s, she issued several digital albums with her father on small labels. She made her major label solo debut on the Claves label in 2019, joining the Bern Symphony Orchestra and conductor Kevin John Edusei on a recording of works by Shostakovich, Weinberg, and Kobekin.
In 2019, Kobekina scored a major breakthrough with a third prize at the 16th International Tchaikovsky Competition in Russia. From 2018 to 2021, she served as a BBC New Generation Artist. Although still in the student phase of her career, she has appeared with major orchestras; these include the Kammerphilharmonie Bremen, Wiener Symphoniker, BBC Philharmonic, and Kremerata Baltica, among many others. Her appearances during the 2023-2024 season included those at the Gstaad Menuhin Festival in Switzerland, the Rheingau Music Festival in Germany, and the Dvořák Prague International Music Festival in the Czech Republic. She released the recital album Ellipses in 2023 on the Mirare label, returning in 2024 on Sony Classical with the album Venice. That year, she won the Leonard Bernstein Award at the Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival in Germany.
