Wild rhythms

Vivi Vassileva comes from a Bulgarian musician family, and is one of the most talented percussionists of the younger generation. She is already being tipped as the successor to percussion star Martin Grubinger, and has appeared at the »Junge Wilden« series in the Dortmund Konzerthaus, as well as in concert with star conductor Teodor Currentzis. In the Elbphilharmonie Recital Hall she presents a varied recital programme together with the Braziilan guitarist Lucas Campara Diniz: the spectrum ranges from Bach to Xenakis.

Vivi Vassileva was already playing in the German National Youth Orchestra aged 13. She was sponsored by the German Music Council and the Robert Bosch Foundation, and went on to study at the Munich College of Music under percussion legend Peter Sadlo until he died. Since 2017 she has been appearing regularly in a duo with Lucas Campara Diniz,who plays South American folk music as well as the classical repertoire.

As a soloist, Ms Vassileva will perform the famous Bach Chaconne for Violin on the marimba, as well as the modern percussion piece »Rebonds B« by Iannis Xenakis. In the duo together with Lucas Campara Diniz she can then be heard in works by Astor Piazzolla und the Brazilian composer-guitarist Sérgio Assad.
