From the age of three Giulietta Koch started her musical education with her mother and from the age of thirteen was taught by Prof. Adrian Oetiker at the Music Academy Basel. Subsequently, she entered the class of Prof. Klaus Hellwig at the University of the Arts (UdK) in Berlin in 2008 after having graduated from Swiss high school. She also received valuable impulses from Lazar Berman, Andrzej Jasinski, Maria Joao Pires and Krystian Zimerman. Born in 1989, she performed at the age of fourteen as soloist of the Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester at the Konzerthaus Berlin with Michael Sanderling. Since then, she has played with many world renowned orchestras. In 2008, Giulietta won a debut concert in the Tonhalle Zürich with Howard Griffiths, with whom she subsequently recorded Gershwin’s rhapsody in blue with the Brandenburg State Orchestra. Giulietta regularly gives recitals and performs at international festivals.
