| 释义 |
Simon Blendis was born in London in 1971. He started the violin aged 4, and his teachers included Carmel Caine, David Takeno and David Zafer. He read music at Clare College, Cambridge, graduating with a double first, and went on to gain a Masters degree at the University of Toronto. Simon joined the Schubert Ensemble at the age of 24, and remained its first violin for the next 23 years until the group came to an end in 2018. During this time the Ensemble gained a reputation as one of the world’s finest chamber groups. It toured extensively, made over 25 CD recordings[1], commissioned over 80 new works for piano and strings and created a library of live performances on YouTube[2]. Away from the Schubert Ensemble Simon has played with many other chamber groups including the Nash Ensemble and the ASMF Chamber Ensemble, and he appears at chamber music festivals throughout the UK. Simon is also an orchestral leader. He has shared the position of first concertmaster with Orchestra Ensemble Kanazawa in Japan since 1999, and has appeared as guest leader with many of the UK’s major orchestras. In 2014 Simon was appointed leader of the London Mozart Players, which he also regularly directs from the violin. He is creator and director of LMP Podium, a leadership development programme that takes the LMP into the business world and uses the chamber orchestra as a metaphor for self-managed teams in other organisations. Simon’s recordings include 27 CDs with the Schubert Ensemble, a CD of oboe quartets with the Caird Oboe Quartet, and Vivaldi’s Four Seasons for the Japan Warner label. In 2018 Simon was appointed a Professor of Violin at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama.
