New in the Concertgebouw Orchestra
Nadia Ettinger
During the 2022-23 season, Nadia Ettinger took part in the Academy of the Concertgebouw Orchestra. Even before the end of the season she won the auditions for second violin, making her the fifteenth Academy alumnus to become a fully-fledged orchestra member!
Since the age of twelve, Ettinger has been performing as a soloist with several orchestras. In 2018, she performed with the Luxembourg Philharmonic Orchestra and the Orchestre Philharmonique Royal de Liège. In 2017, when the Concertgebouw Orchestra performed Side by Side with young musicians from Luxembourg as part of the RCO meets Europe tour, Nadia was one of them. In 2021 moved to Amsterdam to study with Tjeerd Top, who is now her colleague in the orchestra.
