STEFAN MILENKOVICH - violin Stefan Milenkovich was born on January 25, 1977 in Belgrade, Yugoslavia. His parents, both musicians, first set him on the piano but soon realized that his aptitude lay in the violin instead. At the age of two and a half, he switched to the violin under the guidance of his father, who remained his devoted teacher for the following fifteen years. Stefan gave his first public recital on Belgrade Television at the age of three. His first appearance as a soloist with orchestra came two years later. Since his first international competition at the age of seven--the "Jaroslav Kocian" in Prague--where he won First Prize, Stefan has been awarded First Prize at the Rodolfo Lipizer Competition (Italy) and the Ludwig Spohr International Violin Competition (Germany), Second Prize at the Paganini International Violin Competition (Italy), the Indianapolis International Violin Competition (United States, where he was also awarded Best Performance of the Paganini Caprices) and the Tibor Varga Competition (Switzerland), Third Prize at the Yehudi Menuhin Competition (United Kingdom), and top prizes at the Queen Elisabeth International Violin Competition of Belgium and the Hanover International Violin Competition (Germany), all before he turned 18. Stefan began to perform internationally at the age of seven. At eight, he played with the Bolshoi Theater Orchestra in Moscow. At ten, he made his United States debut at the Lincoln Center in New York and released his first internationally distributed recording of the Mendelssohn and the Kabalevsky Concertos and Ravel's Tzigane. At eleven, he made his London debut with the London Philharmonic under Lorin Maazel and had his first taste of a full-size violin when he was invited to play on Paganini's 1742 Guarneri. Following the Christmas concert in the White House for Ronald Reagan in 1987, Stefan subsequently played for Mikhail Gorbachev in 1988 and Pope John Paul II in 1991. His tours have taken him to countries around the globe, including Czechoslovakia, Russia, Austria, Germany, Hungary, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, the United States, Finland, Switzerland, Israel, the United Kingdom, Italy, Spain, Turkey, Croatia, Poland, Bulgaria, Sri Lanka, Mexico, China, Australia, Canada, Japan, Brazil, and Zimbabwe, where he plays with some of the leading orchestras in the world, such as the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra, the Bolshoi Theater Orchestra, the Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio-France, the Orchestre National de France, the Philharmonia Hungarica, the Berlin Symphony Orchestra, the Dortmund and Rhein Philharmonics, the Hanover Symphony (Germany), the National Orchestra of Belgium, the Helsinki Philharmonic (Finland), the the Solisti Veneti, Santa Cecilia, and Sofia Soloist Orchestras (Italy), just to name a few. In 1993, at the age of sixteen, Stefan gave his 1000th concert in Monterrey, Mexico, and on January 14, 2000, he celebrated twenty years of work in the Sava Center in Belgrade. At the age of eighteen, Stefan Milenkovich became the youngest student ever to graduate from the University of Belgrade with a degree in Music. Stefan made his first U.S. appearances in 1987 at the Newport Music Festival in Rhode Island and the Mostly Mozart Festival at the Avery Fisher Hall in New York. In 1995, he was invited back to the Aspen Music Festival and subsequently to the prestigious Professional Studies Program at the Juilliard School (New York) where he studied with Ms. DeLay. In 1998, under the auspices of the Young Concert Artists Inc., he made his New York concerto début recital at the 92nd Street Y, his Washington DC début at the Kennedy Center, following by concerts at the Alice Tully Hall & Carnegie Hall in New York and Suntory Hall in Tokyo--where a special program & interview was taped and broadcast by NHK Television. In December 1998, Stefan was featured on National Public Radio's talkshow Weekend All Things Considered. Since then, he has given numerous recitals in the United States, a few of which have been aired on NPR's Performance Today. Stefan is also active in chamber music as a member of the Corinthian Trio with pianist Adam Neiman and cellist Ani Aznavoorian. When not on tour, he teaches at the Juilliard School in New York City. When
the Bosnian-Herzegovinian war reached its height, the Milenkovich family
moved to Italy, where they have been living since. His father, Zoran
Milenkovich, is a violin instructor at the Accademia Internazionale di
Musica in Rome. His mother, Lidia Caenazzo, is still playing the piano
and occasionally accompanies Stefan on his European tours. Stefan
continues his service with the First Children's Embassy of the World
Medjashi, of which he was the first child ambassador. He has also
appeared at a number of benefit concerts in Yugoslavia and abroad, all
profits from which have been used for humanitarian purposes in his
war-torn home country. |
