Jennifer Murphy

Violin

Violinist Jennifer Murphy is an active soloist and chamber musician whose work has taken her across North America, Australia, and Europe. Her performances have been broadcast on BBC Radio and CBC Canada, and she is equally at home on major concert stages and in more intimate chamber music settings. Solo highlights include performing Korngold’s Violin Concerto with Grammy Award-winning conductor Bramwell Tovey at Toronto’s Koerner Hall, and Chausson’s Poème with the RTÉ National Concert Orchestra and David Brophy.

A dedicated collaborator, Jennifer has worked with leading chamber ensembles such as the Attacca Quartet and the ARC Ensemble, and has appeared at festivals including Banff, West Cork, Waterford, Rockport, and Toronto Summer Music. She has worked closely with composers including Laurie Anderson, Magnus Lindberg and Hauschka, and gave the Canadian premiere of Thomas Adès’ Alchymia at the West End Micro Music Festival.

Jennifer trained at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama and the Royal Academy of Music in London, and was a Rebanks Family Fellow at the Royal Conservatory of Music in Toronto. Outside of performing, she enjoys knitting, yoga, and continued learning, and holds an MSc in Performance Science.
