JACONO-GILMOVICH
After beginning to play the violin at the age of 6, Victoria went on to achieve A-musA and L-mus-A on both violin and viola, together with a Bachelor of Music with Honours from the Australian Institute of Music.
She won numerous awards and scholarships throughout Australia and the International String Player of the Year award at the Gisborne International Music Competition in New Zealand.
Performing on her modern Italian violin made by Giuseppe Pellecani or her Australian viola made by Harry Vatilioutis, Victoria has played with numerous orchestras, sometimes as Concertmaster or soloist, in Japan, China, Hungary, Austria, the Czech and Slovak Republics and Spain. She continues to perform for numerous musical organisations and for a number of charitable groups.
Victoria is the violinist in the Strelitzia Trio, which won the prestigious Musica Viva chamber music prize in 2009 and has a concert series and an ABC Classic FM recording scheduled for 2010.
Since 2005 Victoria has been working freelance, and the intensity and variety of her misical involvement will be appreciated by a visit to her website www.victoriaviolin.com.au
