Featured Soloist: Nina Kotova, 'cello

Ms. Kotova played with the BCO on Jan 24 and 26, 2003

Newsweek Magazine has called Nina Kotova "A Model Musician" — and no wonder. The Russian-born artist appears in many of the world's great concert halls as soloist, chamber musician and composer. At the same time, she is a sought-after fashion model with a recent listing on ELLE Magazine's Top 25 "Hot List". In 1996 her Wigmore Hall debut in London was highlighted by the world premiere of her own composition, "Sketches from the Catwalk". Since then, Nina Kotova has appeared at Carnegie Hall as soloist with the Moscow Chamber Orchestra, the Great Hall of the Moscow Conservatory, Town Hall in New York and on Ravinia's "Rising Stars" series. Her debut album of romantic ‘cello repertoire with the Moscow Chamber Orchestra stayed on the Billboard charts for several weeks and she has been featured in Time, Newsweek, Vogue, the Wall Street Journal and on network TV. The Los Angeles Times summed up her career this way: "a talent to reckon with – poised, committed, graceful and spirited."
