Meet the Virtuoso

The Synchron Solo Viola features stellar performances by Anna Firsanova, solo violist of the Vienna Synchron Orchestra. Originally from Moscow, she studied both in her hometown and in Vienna, shaping her distinctive musical voice across these rich cultural landscapes. A prizewinner at several international competitions, Anna has been a member of the Wiener Jeunesse Orchestra and the Gustav Mahler Youth Orchestra. She is currently co-principal violist of the Bruckner Orchestra Linz, bringing expressive depth and refined artistry to concert halls and recording studios alike. At Vienna Synchron Stage, her playing can be heard on the recordings of The Acolyte and the anime Made in Abyss: Dawn of the Deep Soul.

Deeply Articulated

Anna Firsanova brought exceptional dedication and precision to the extensive sampling sessions in the large hall of Synchron Stage Vienna – a commitment clearly reflected in the impressive range of articulations captured. Short notes include a variety of spiccatos, staccatos, détachés, ricochet, and saltando. Long notes come with various vibrato styles, different attacks and releases as well as various slides. Legato variants include normal, agile, slurred, portamento, and lyrical styles. Playing techniques such as sforzato, several crescendos and diminuendos, tremolos, trills, harmonics, pizzicatos and col legno add a host of styles, tonal colors and dynamic nuances to the expressive possibilities of this virtual instrument.
