Hagai Shaham began to study the violin at the age of six and was the last student of the renowned Ilona Feher. In 1990 Shaham and his duo partner pianist Arnon Erez won First Prize in the Munich International Competition (ARD), the first time in nearly twenty years this prestigious prize had been awarded to a violin-piano duo. Shaham made his London début at the Queen Elizabeth Hall in 1990 and in Wigmore Hall in 1996, since when he has performed in most of Europe’s most prestigious venues.

Arnon Erez studied with Arie Vardi, and is a graduate of Tel Aviv University. He undertook advanced studies of chamber music with the Guarneri Quartet in the USA, and currently heads the Chamber Music Department at the Buchmann-Mehta School of Music, Tel Aviv University. Erez is highly acclaimed for his sensitivity and virtuosity and is especially noted for his duo partnership with violinist Hagai Shaham. He has performed in numerous major concert halls, including Carnegie Hall, New York; Beethoven Halle, Bonn; the New Auditorium du Louvre in Paris; and London’s Wigmore Hall.
