Nadezda Filippova

For pianist Nadezda Filippova (Russia, 1989), life and music are inseparable. She views the meaning of music as deeply personal and rooted in individual experiences - a belief that forms the foundation of her performances and programs.
The French composer Claude Debussy played a key role in her musical development. His works inspired her to explore sound and musical structures in new ways, further enriching her playing. This influence is reflected in her album Echo Chambers (2024), which received glowing reviews. "Honest and sincere, without ever becoming flat or dull," praised de Volkskrant.
In addition to her solo career, Nadezda launched the concert series "Soirée de Nadezda" in 2018. Through this series, she collaborates with artists from various disciplines, offering new perspectives on music. Her programs often weave music with literature, poetry, and personal stories, fostering meaningful interactions with her audience.
Nadezda has performed across Europe and the United States, working with diverse ensembles and musicians. Her collaborations include performances with New York's Bang On a Can All-Stars and at the Palermo Classica Festival. As a finalist for Dutch Classical Talent, she played at prominent venues in the Netherlands, including the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam and the Philharmonie Haarlem. In 2023, she formed the Da Ponte Trio with Sanne Hunfeld (violin) and Honorine Schaeffer (cello), both members of the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra.
