Rudens Turku - Violin

"Rudens Turku's exceptional talent and superior technical and artistic competency has been widely acknowledged.  He brings deeply felt passion to his playing, which extends from the most profound sweetness to overwhelming force reaching directly into our hearts.  You simply have to hear him and in doing so weep, laugh or simply lift off."   - MERKUR

    Born in Tirana/Albania in 1978 Rudens Turku received his first musical training at the age of four by his father, a professional violist.  Being first recognized for his outstanding talent in his home country, he was soon invited to Germany, where in 1996 he began his studies with Prof. Ana Chumachenco at the Conservatory of Music of the University of Munich./Germany.  After receiving his concert diploma with distinction in the summer of 2000, he concluded his studies with a Master Class diploma in 2002.
    Rudens has performed with several reputable international orchestras and won the first prize of "Jugend Musiziert" (ie: Competition of Young German Musicians) and the first prize of the Music Contest organized by the "Lions Clubs International" in 2001.  In the same year he was awarded the "Dieter-Ulrich-Promotion-Prize".  In 2006 he received the Artist of the year award from the city of Pasing in Bavaria.
    Guest performances have taken Rudens besides Germany to Albania, Austria, Belgium, Italy, Luxembourg, Spain, France and Switzerland as well as to the United States.  During his expanding concertizing activities he had the great fortune to meet artist such as Lord Yehudi Menuhin, Ida Haendel, Denes Zsigmondy, Ulf Holscher, Neeme Jarvi and August Everding.  Rudens was invited to perform for former US President Bill Clinton at the ceremony of the German "Festakt" in Parliament during Mr. Clinton's visit to Berlin in October of 2002 and in the same month Rudens made a very successful concert tour of Spain.
