"Gorgeous sound - ripe and silvery, phrasing with majestic breadth."
Liya Petrova was revealed to the international scene in 2016 when she took First Prize at the Carl Nielsen competition in Denmark, chaired by Nikolaj Szeps-Znaider. Two years later, she recorded the Nielsen and Prokofiev’s first concer-tos with the Odense Philharmonic and Estonian conductor Kristiina Poska for Orchid Classics. This first album earned her international acclaim from the press : London’s Sunday Times admired her « gorgeous sound - ripe and silvery, phrasing with majestic breadth ». Pizzicato in Germany also qualified her sound as « silvery and pure » while Gramo-phone praised her « exceptional tonal variety » in « a marvelous disc ». The Strad was impressed by her « natural virtuosity » while Classical Music magazine finds her interpretation of the Nielsen concerto « staggeringly good » and « intensely lyrical »
As a soloist, Petrova performed with orchestras such as Paris’ Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio-France, Orchestre Philharmonique de Luxembourg, Antwerp Symphony Orchestra, Staatskapelle Weimar, Orchestre Philharmonique de Monte-Carlo, Brussels Philharmonic, Norddeutsche Philharmonie, Kansai Philharmonic in Japan, with such leading conductors as Philippe Herreweghe, Krzysztof Penderecki, Nikolaj Szeps-Znaider, Yan Tortelier, Xian Zhang, Christo-pher Warren-Green, Michel Tabachnik or Jesús López Cobos.
