Ghirardelli Mina Aoki Violin Recital with Takushi Satoh

■Mina Girardelli Aoki is a unique performer who was admitted to the Chigiana Conservatory of Music in Italy at the age of 14, under the age of admission, and later was a special class student at the Maastricht Conservatory of Music.
Her well-known piece "Devil's Trill" is a highlight of the concert, not only for her technique, which even Mr. Belkin marveled that he had never seen her perform such a trill, but also for the fruit of her daily efforts to get to the heart of the music.

She has been a student at the Maastricht Conservatory since last fall (skipping a grade in music theory), and has been a super high school student, double enrolling in a regular high school and the conservatory, until then.

Takuji Satoh, who won the first prize at the Japan Music Competition while still in high school and graduated at the top of his class from Tokyo University of the Arts, has received many awards, including the first prize at the Schubert International Competition in 2007, the prize at the Queen Elisabeth International Competition in 2010, and the first prize at the Cantù International Competition in 2011.
