Following a trial period, the Italian-Venezuelan violinist Giovanni Guzzo has been appointed concertmaster of Camerata Salzburg. He will take on the position with immediate effect alongside Gregory Ahss, who has been leading the orchestra since 2012.
Giovanni Guzzo began his musical career at the age of 5 on the piano, adding the violin a year later. At the age of 12 he became the youngest winner of the National Violin Competition ‘Juan Bautista Plaza’ in Venezuela. He then was supported by French violin virtuoso Maurice Hassan and earned a scholarship to study at the Royal Academy of Music in London.
