Supporting young talent is particularly close to Anne-Sophie Mutter's heart. To this end, she founded the Anne-Sophie Mutter Foundation in 2008 and can now look back on a proud list of prominent scholarship recipients, including Vilde Frang, Sergey Khachatryan, Daniel Müller-Schott, and Kian Soltani. Her latest discovery is Elias David Moncado, born in 2000: a German-Spanish-Malaysian violinist who won the Grand Prix as well as ten special prizes at the Karol Lipiński Competition in Poland, made his debut at Carnegie Hall in New York in 2025, and released his first CD with Warner Classics in 2026. He will present himself at this debut with Maurice Ravel's American-inspired Violin Sonata, which centers on a "blues." He will also perform highly virtuosic pieces on the Stradivarius "Ludwig, ex-Szigeti," such as Franz Waxman's finger-breaking Carmen Fantasy. Four other protégés of Mutter will also be featured in this unusual debut concert, performing two brand-new works commissioned by Anne-Sophie Mutter to mark her 50th stage anniversary in Lucerne, which will now receive their world premieres. For making new music possible is another passion of the great virtuoso.
