LAURA HAMILTON | Violin

Laura Hamilton was Principal Associate Concertmaster for the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra, where she led hundreds of performances over 33 years.  She was concertmaster for many of the MET's popular “Live in HD” videocasts. Previously a member of the Chicago Symphony, she appeared with that orchestra as concerto soloist with Maestro Sir Georg Solti.  She is currently the Artistic Director and Concertmaster for the summer festival Classical Tahoe in Nevada, and Concertmaster for CityMusic Cleveland.  She teaches violin and chamber music at New York University.

In 2014, while on leave from the MET, Laura served for one season as concertmaster at the Sydney Opera House.  A highlight of her Sydney experience was a gala concert with famed tenor Jonas  Kaufmann; her rendition of "Massenet's Meditation from Thais" garnered rave reviews praising her “radiant, serenely beautiful interpretation.”
