Elena Fischer-Dieskau
Elena is consistently praised by both critics and audiences, provoking great enthusiasm each time she performs at prestigious festivals and concert halls around the world - including the Edinburgh Festival, Perth Concert Hall, Brahms-Gesellschaft Schleswig-Holstein, Lisztomanias de Chateauroux and Auditorium du Louvre.
The pianist Nelson Freire called her ‘a great revelation’ after attending one of her performances of Rachmaninov’s Piano Concerto No 2.
Born in Berlin into a family of musicians, Elena started playing the piano at the age of six. She is the granddaughter of German baritone Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau.
