ABOUT
Kadra Dreizehnter dedicates herself successfully and with great pleasure to harpsichord and ensemble playing as well as the study of historical interpretation practice.
Concert activities with renowned ensembles and musicians such as the Freiburg Baroque Orchestra, Les Essences and the Main Baroque Orchestra have taken her throughout Germany and Europe in recent years, where she has recently performed at the Alte Oper Frankfurt, in Istanbul, Ankara, the Tonhalle Düsseldorf, in Freiburg, at the Prätorius Festival and the Eichstätt Music Festival.
She is a frequent guest at the chamber music series Barock im Lichterschein, as well as at the Lehmbruck Museum Concerts of the Duisburg Philharmonic Orchestra. She gained experience in continuo in operas at the Giessen State Opera, where she played in performances of Handel’s opera Xerxes in the 23/24 season.
Kadra Dreizehnter also performs in chamber music and solo recitals, with her repertoire ranging from the early Baroque period to contemporary harpsichord music. She is also a founding member of the orchestra BaroqueLAB Frankfurt, a self-governing ensemble that focuses on carefully researched performance practice and presents it in modern and interdisciplinary events.
She has been heard on radio programs, including SWR and BR Klassik.
In the summer of 2022, she reached the semi-finals of the German Music Competition in the harpsichord category and competed in the continuo at the International Telemann Competition.
Ihre Cembaloausbildung begann sie bei Mikail Zhuraviev und Wolfgang Kostujak, ging dann an die Folkwang Universität der Künste Essen, wo sie bei Prof. Christian Rieger ein Jungstudium absolvierte.
Since 2019 she has been studying at the HfMDK Frankfurt in the harpsichord class of Prof. Eva Maria Pollerus. Last summer, she completed her Bachelor’s degree with distinction and began her Master’s degree. She received many further impulses through master classes with Prof. Jörg Andreas Bötticher, Thorsten Johann and Anna Fontana, among others.
