Dutch-Argentinian soprano Ana-Carmen Balestra is known for her clear expressive voice and sparkling stage presence. A graduate of the Guildhall Opera Course, she has garnered attention for her talent as both an opera and lieder singer.

Georgian pianist Salome Jordania has appeared as a recitalist, chamber musician, and concerto soloist extensively across Europe and the United States. Salome was named the sole winner of the New York Concert Artists Competition, which led to her debut recital at Berlin’s Philharmonie Hall in March 2023.
