Caroline Goulding

At age sixteen, violinist Caroline Goulding combines fearless technique and innate artistry with an unadulterated joy for music-making that is unmatched by most violinists of any age. In her young career, she has already graced the stage with prestigious orchestras such as The Cleveland Orchestra and the Detroit Symphony. She has won the coveted first prize of the Aspen Music Festival's Concerto Competition (at age thirteen) and has appeared on NBC's Today Show, the MARTHA show hosted by Martha Stewart and been featured on National Public Radio's From The Top as well as From the Top: Live at Carnegie on PBS Television. Caroline joins forces with pianist and From the Top impresario Christopher O'Riley in her debut album with Telarc records. In this recital program Caroline performs several works by American composers, composers writing in this country and pieces inspired by uniquely American idioms. She offers a gripping account of the Pulitzer Prize-winning American composer John Corigliano's Red Violin Caprices, crafted from his score to the 1998 film. "Caroline Goulding is a remarkable young artist," said John Corigliano upon hearing her performance of the Caprices. "When I heard her recording of my Red Violin Caprices, I wondered why I had never heard of this very special performer. Now I know - she's 16. But at that age, she gives a totally individual interpretation to my music. She is so musical and the technique is so brilliant. I think she will shortly become a very famous young woman, and only hope she gives my other violin works a glance." Caroline Goulding was born and raised in the small boating town of Port Huron in eastern Michigan, the child of two special education teachers. She began studying the violin when she was three years old, under the tutelage of Julia Kurtyka, and continues her studies with renowned violin pedagogue Paul Kantor at the Cleveland Institute of Music. She has performed with The Cleveland Orchestra, the Detroit Symphony, the Cleveland Pops Orchestra, the Cincinnati Pops, the Buffalo Philharmonic, Sinfonia Gulf Coast, Atlantic Classical Orchestra, and Louisville Youth Orchestra, among others. She has attended the Aspen Music Festival and School, the Starling-Delay Symposium and the Interlochen Center for the Arts.
