Edin Karamazov is a Bosnian musician-lutenist (born in 196 5 in Zenica, Bosnia and Herzegovina). He studied lute with Hopkinson Smith at the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis. Edin Karamazov’s thrilling virtuoso performances on the lute and guitar have garnered rave reviews and unprecedented critical acclaim in America and Europe. As a soloist he has performed and recorded with leading international early music ensembles and artists including the Hilliard Ensemble, Hesperion XX, Mala Punica, Orpheus Chamber Orchestra, Andreas Scholl, Maria- Cristina Kiehr, Arianna Savall, and Sting. Karamazov’s solo archlute recording features Benjamin Britten’s “Nocturnal” and J.S.Bach’s Partita in d-minor (orig. for violin). Recent collaborations with Sting (in the field of 16th century music) resulted in the album and film Songs from the Labyrinth, devoted to the lute-songs of John Dowland. Edin is currently working with Macedonian singer and songwriter Kaliopi. They are preparing new material that will be released on the international market.
