Itzhak Perlman Vivaldi A Minor
Gil Shaham (Hebrew: גיל שחם; born February 19, 1971) is an American violinist of Israeli Jewish descent.
Itzhak Perlman Summer Camp
Biography(edit)
Gil Shaham was born in Urbana, Illinois, while his parents, Israeli scientists, were on an academic fellowship at the University of Illinois. His father Jacob was an astrophysicist,(1) and his mother, Meira Diskin, was a cytogeneticist. His sister is the pianist Orli Shaham. His brother Shai Shaham is the head of the Laboratory of Developmental Genetics at Rockefeller University.(2) Gil Shaham is a graduate of the Horace Mann School in Riverdale, New York. The family returned to Jerusalem when Gil was two. At the age of seven, Shaham began taking violin lessons from Samuel Bernstein at the Rubin Academy of Music in Jerusalem and received annual scholarships from the America-Israel Cultural Foundation.(3)
In 1981, Gil Shaham debuted with the Jerusalem Symphony and the Israel Philharmonic while he was studying with Haim Taub. Later that year, he attended Aspen Music School in Colorado, studying with Dorothy DeLay and Jens Ellermann.(3) Later in 1982 after taking first place in Israel's Claremont Competition, he became a scholarship student at Juilliard. He has also studied at Columbia University.(3)
Currently he teaches at Bard College Conservatory of Music in the Hudson Valley (NY).
Shaham is married to the Australian-born violinist Adele Anthony. They have three children, Elijah, Ella Mei and Simon. Gil Shaham currently lives in New York City with his family.(3)
Music career(edit)
At age 10, Shaham debuted as soloist with the Jerusalem Symphony, conducted by the violinist Alexander Schneider. Less than a year later, Shaham performed with Israel's foremost orchestra, the Israel Philharmonic, which was conducted by Zubin Mehta. At age 11, in 1982, Shaham won first prize in the Claremont Competition and was admitted to the Juilliard School in New York, where he studied with Dorothy DeLay and Hyo Kang. In addition, both he and his younger sister, the pianist Orli Shaham, attended Columbia University.
Shaham's career took off in 1989, when he was called upon to replace an ailing Itzhak Perlman for a series of concerts with Michael Tilson Thomas and the London Symphony Orchestra. Taking time out from his studies at the Horace Mann School (where he was a senior), he flew to London,(4) then performed the Bruch and Sibelius violin concertos.
In 1990, Shaham received the Avery Fisher Career Grant. In 1992, he was awarded the Premio Internazionale of the Accademia Chigiana in Siena.
Shaham has performed with many of the world's leading orchestras, among them the New York Philharmonic, Berlin Philharmonic, Toronto Symphony Orchestra, Vienna Philharmonic, Israel Philharmonic Orchestra, Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Boston Symphony Orchestra, Los Angeles Philharmonic, Russian National Orchestra, Academy of St. Martin in the Fields, San Francisco Symphony Orchestra, Philadelphia Orchestra, and National Youth Orchestra of the United States of America.
Shaham plays a Stradivarius violin from the 'long pattern' period, the 'Comtesse de Polignac' of 1699. It was offered to Shaham on loan, in 1989, by the Stradivarius Society of Chicago.

First Play: Orli Shaham, Brahms Inspired
Johannes Brahms is one of those composers whom you can't imagine the world without. He has exerted an influence on seemingly every major composer who came after him, including some whose music sounds hardly anything like Brahms's — Schoenberg and Hindemith, for example.
And like all great artists, Brahms was influenced in turn by his own predecessors and contemporaries. American pianist Orli Shaham's new album, Brahms Inspired, explores the patterns of influence that formed around Brahms: how the music he studied influenced the music that he wrote, and how the music he wrote influences music being written today.
The two-disc set is anchored by Brahms's three final sets of solo piano pieces, Opuses 117, 118 and 119. Shaham pairs them with music that Brahms is known to have loved: pieces by Bach, Schubert, Schumann and Chopin.
Read more and listen to the full album ahead of its June 8 release

What makes Beethoven so enduring and so popular?
That's one of the questions we asked Orli Shaham, artistic director of the pre-school program Baby Got Bach, in a recent interview about her all-Beethoven Family Concert this Sunday at 92Y. The concert kicks off a month of Beethoven at 92Y.
"Beethoven is one of those mythical characters who excites us when we even just hear his name. He and his music are so emotional, so filled with romanticism; he captures our imagination. I think it can be especially true for kids. There is something about that Beethovean energy that I think will spark their interest and creativity."
What do you hope the audience will gain from the concert experience?
"Our plan is for the kids—and their parents—to get the feeling of what it must have been like to be Beethoven, so we’ll talk about the different aspects of his life and of his sound world, and how that affected his music.
But even more, we want to give everyone a sense of what it must be like to have all those ideas swirling around in your head all the time, and give them the chance to experience what it’s like to compose music. With any luck, we’ll trigger their own creativity and show them that they too have something important to say. We’ll give them the example of how a creative genius like Beethoven goes about saying it."
Tell us about your narrator, Naomi Lewin, and why you asked her to join you.
"I’ve known Naomi for many years. She’s the afternoon host for WQXR but even more importantly, she does the “Classics for Kids” program out of Cincinnati, which is one of the best programs out there that acquaints kids with music; it tells the stories behind the music that kids will understand and appreciate.
She knows so well how to talk to kids about music, so when this opportunity came up, I knew she would be my perfect partner. She’ll do most of the talking, and I’ll do most of the playing along with my two other guests, violinist Adam Barnett-Hart and cellist Caroline Stinson.
We’ll have lots of little bits of Beethoven’s music. We won’t overwhelm the kids with 20 minutes from a single work but they’ll get a good 20 minutes or more of Beethoven’s music."
This Sunday, Oct 27 at 3 pm, Orli Shaham presents an all-Beethoven Family Concert for ages 6 and older.

Y Beethoven? This is Why Beethoven, according to Shai Wosner, Orli Shaham, Julien Labro, Jonathan Biss, Benjamin Hochman and Jenny Lin.
“It’s not been possible to be a composer since 1827,” Biss told us, “without having something to say about Beethoven, like it or not.”
We want to hear from you, too. Tell us, Why Beethoven? We’ll feature your comments on our Tumblr and Twitter, using the hashtag #YBeethoven.
The brilliant Hagen Quartet brings the complete Beethoven cycle to 92Y in November.
