儘管尼爾斯・孟克梅耶燦爛的演奏生涯才剛開始起步,這位中提琴家卻已一再地向世界展現出卓越的演奏才華與嶄新的曲目安排。如此奪目的才氣,讓孟克梅耶在各地獲得了極高的評價,更喚醒世人對於孟克梅耶手上的這把樂器──中提琴──的好奇與熱愛。

孟克梅耶目前是 Sony Classics 的專屬演奏家,在簽約後短短兩年間就發行了五張專輯,且屢屢獲得各大唱片獎項與樂評的高度讚賞,也都是德國古典音樂類唱片排行榜上的常勝軍。在 Sony Classics 迄今發行的八張專輯中,孟克梅耶不只首演了他發掘的18世紀樂譜手稿,同時也演奏了現代的作品,追溯了中提琴發展史上的每一個重要里程碑。

孟克梅耶的演奏生涯萌芽於他師事慕尼黑音樂戲劇高等學校 Harolf Schlichtig 教授的時期。在求學的階段,孟克梅耶就已頻頻在各大賽中掄元:2006 年,他榮獲莫斯科巴許米特國際中提琴大賽首獎,同年更進一步地獲得德國音樂大賽的桂冠;2009 年,孟克梅耶與鋼琴家 Nicholas Rimmer 組成二重奏,獲得室內樂類的大獎──倫敦「Parkhause Award」。接下來兩年,孟克梅耶先後任教於德勒斯登的卡爾・馬利亞・馮・韋伯高等音樂學校,以及馬德里的索菲亞皇后高等音樂院。2011 年,孟克梅耶受母校慕尼黑音樂戲劇高等學院延攬為教授,執教至今;他目前也是梅克倫堡音樂節、盧森堡 Echternach International Festival,以及海德堡愛樂的駐團藝術家。

Still in the early stages of a brilliant career, Nils Mönkemeyer has again and again showcased his artistic brilliance and innovative programming, talent that has brought him international acclaim while igniting an enthusiastic and growing interest in his signature instrument, the viola.

Under exclusive contract with Sony Classical, Mönkemeyer has released five CDs in the past two years, garnering both critical praise and prestigious awards. All of his recordings have risen to the top echelons of the German classical music charts. Mönkemeyer has attempted to trace the milestones of the viola in these albums, from his discovery and premier recordings of original 18th century manuscripts, through to modern pieces and his own transcriptions.

Mönkemeyer’s concert career took off at an early stage, during his student days under the tutelage of Harolf Schlichtig at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater in Munich. During that time, he received a number of awards including first prize at the 2006 International Yuri Bashmet Viola Competition in Moscow, as well as the top prize at the German Music Competition in the same year. In 2009 he claimed the renowned Parkhause Award in London, along with Nicholas Rimmer. Going full circle, Mönkemeyer has recently accepted a professorship at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater in Munich.

This follows two years as professor at Hochschule für Musik Carl Maria von Weber in Dresden and a stint as assistant professor at the Escuela Superior de Musica Reina Sofia Madrid.

The artist’s concert projects include collaboration with the WDR Radio Orchestra, the Berlin Radio Symphony Orchestra, the Stuttgart Radio Symphony Orchestra, the Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra, the Dresden Philharmonic, the Bremen Philharmonic, the Nuremberg Philharmonic, the Stuttgart Philharmonic, the Potsdam Chamber Academy, the Berne Symphony Orchestra, the Russian National Orchestra and the Moscow Soloists under the direction of Yuri Bashmet. Mönkemeyer works regularly with directors Michail Jurowski, Reinhard Goebel, Michael Sanderling Cornelius Meister, Rafael Fruebeck de Burgos and Christopher Hogwood to name a few.

Mönkemeyer is a regular guest at international festivals and concert halls, including London’s Wigmore Hall, the Berlin Philharmonic, the Hamburg Music Hall, the Konzertverein in Vienna as well as concert stages in Munich, Dresden, Baden-Baden, Düsseldorf, Stuttgart, and Bremen. He has appeared in such festivals as the Rheingau Music Festival, Gidon Kremer’s Chamber Music Festival, Lower Saxony’s Music Days, the Heidelberg Spring, the Mecklenberg Vorpommern Festival and the Mozart Festival in Wuerzburg. He will be appearing for the second time as an Artist in Residence at the Festival Mitte Europa.

The artist’s regular chamber music partners include Julia Fischer, Nicholas Rimmer, William Youn and Christoph Poppen. Mönkemeyer’s instrument was produced in the Munich workshop of renowned violin maker Peter Erben.
