Available to hire
I am Julia, a professional violinist and composer with extensive experience in jazz, experimental music, and live electronics. I have performed internationally and lead multiple ensembles, including my own jazz quartet. My passion lies in blending traditional string playing with modern electronic music, creating unique sounds and collaborations.
Throughout my career, I have also been active as a lecturer and workshop leader, sharing my knowledge and enthusiasm for music and improvisation. Based in London now, I enjoy contributing to the vibrant experimental improvisation scene while continuing to compose and perform worldwide.
