Caroline Goulding

After a recent appearance in Rockville, MD just outside of Washington D.C. violinist Caroline Goulding, age nineteen will be returning as a guest artist to Boise, ID. Caroline last guest appearance with the Boise Philharmonic was May of 2010 where she made quite an impression at the season finale. She has performed as a soloist with some of North America’s premier orchestras including The Cleveland Orchestra, Dallas Symphony, Houston Symphony, Detroit Symphony, Charlotte Symphony, Louisville Orchestra, Sarasota Orchestra, Buffalo Philharmonic, the Cleveland Pops and the Cincinnati Pops. Caroline has appeared at venues such as Carnegie Hall’s Zankel Hall, Lincoln Center, Merkin Hall, the Kennedy Center, Buffalo Chamber Music Society’s Kleinhans Music Hall in Buffalo, and the University of Georgia’s Ramsey Concert Hall.

On March 14, 2011 Caroline was awarded the Avery Fisher Career Grant at a reception and performance at Lincoln Center’s Stanley H. Kaplan Penthouse. The 2010-2011 season marked a cycle of solo orchestral engagements including debuts with the Louisville Orchestra, Sarasota Orchestra, Houston Symphony, Charlotte Symphony, and El Paso Symphony. Prior to receiving the Career Grant, Caroline won the 2009 Young Concert Artists International Auditions, and was presented in recital throughout the nation including debuts at the Kaufman Center’s Merkin Hall in NYC, Kennedy Center’s Terrace Theatre in Washington DC and the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston. That same year, Caroline was awarded a Grammy nomination for her debut recording on the Telarc record label.

Along with the nomination, Caroline’s debut recording garnered attention from venerable musicians, including violinist Jaime Laredo and Composer John Corigliano whose piece, Red Violin, she recently recorded.

Caroline Goulding and the Boise Philharmonic String Quartet will be playing at the Idaho Business Review’s 2012 Women of the Year Gala at Boise Centre on February 21, 2012. Caroline will be the featured performance during the awards ceremony.
