Milena Umiglia-Marena was born into a musical family and received her first cello lessons from her mother. At the age of 10, she took lessons from Rafael Rosenfeld and studied with him until she received her Bachelor’s degree from the Basel Music Academy in 2018. Since then, she has continued her studies with Thomas Grossenbacher at the Zurich University of the Arts. She has received various prizes and awards at national and international competitions, including the Murten Classics Cello Competition (2018), Schenk Soloist Competition (2021), Kiwanis Soloist Competition in Zurich (2023), Vienna Classical Music Academy (2023), 19th International Padova Music Competition (2023), Vienna New Year's Concert International Competition (2023), and Slava International Cello Competition (2023). She is a scholarship holder of the Friedl Wald Foundation, the Aebi-Luthy Foundation, and the International Lyceum Club Zurich.
She has attended masterclasses with renowned cellists such as David Geringas, Wolfgang Emanuel Schmidt, Peter Bruns, Maximilian Hornung, and Reinhard Latzko, as well as chamber music teachers like Eberhardt Feltz and Robert Levin. She had the opportunity to perform with chamber music partners like Julia Fischer, Alexander Sitkovetsky, Nils Mönkemeyer, Dima Smirnov, Benjamin Engeli, and Fabio di Casola. She won second prize at the Swiss Chamber Music Competition Orpheus and first prize at the Kiwanis Chamber Music Competition in Zurich, and in 2022 she was a finalist with the string quartet Modulor at the Young Credit Suisse Competition.

The pianist Eylam Keshet, who lives in Basel, performs as a soloist and chamber musician in Europe and the USA. His festival and concert appearances include Ravinia’s Steans Music Institute, the International Music Festival Pau Casals, the Mecklenburg-Vorpommern Festival, the International Festival of Wissembourg, the Brandenburg Summer Concerts, the Fanny Davies International Piano Series, and the Morse Recital Hall at Yale University; other performance venues include the Burghof Lörrach, the Bielefeld Philharmonic, and Münster’s Erbdrostenhof, as well as a fortepiano program in the Salon des Pianos Basel. His Naxos album Domenico Scarlatti: Complete Keyboard Sonatas, Vol. 22 received a 10/10 review — "one of the jewels in Naxos" (ClassicsToday).
As a dedicated chamber musician, Keshet performs with leading colleagues, including clarinetist Jonathan Leibovitz. As a soloist, he has appeared with many orchestras, including the Basel Chamber Orchestra, the Haifa Symphony Orchestra, the Rishon LeZion Symphony Orchestra, and the Ashdod Symphony Orchestra. Previously, he was an assistant to Prof. Anton Kernjak at the Basel School of Music. His main studies were with Asaf Zohar (Tel Aviv University), Hung-Kuan Chen (Yale University), and Claudio Martínez Mehner (Music Academy Basel); he studied fortepiano at the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis with Edoardo Torbianelli. Keshet also gives masterclasses, including at Chetham’s School of Music in Manchester.
Born into a family of violinists, Tim Crawford's early musical life was shaped by both the violin and his years as a chorister. Today, he is an internationally celebrated violinist who divides his time between London and Denmark and is known for his versatility and collaborative artistry.
Tim divides his time among several leading ensembles: the Teyber Trio, the Valo Quartet, the Ensemble Zeitgeist, and as the leader of the Danish chamber collective, the Esbjerg Ensemble. In addition to these commitments, he is active internationally as a guest artist. Recent highlights include chamber music collaborations with Anthony Marwood, Emmanuel Pahud, Nicolas Altstaedt, Lawrence Power, Jeremy Denk, Mark Padmore, Jonian Ilias Kadesha, Beatrice Rana, Maria Włoszczowska, and Timothy Ridout. His performances have taken him to renowned festivals such as the Hindsgavl Festival (Denmark), the Musikdorf Ernen (Switzerland), the Resonances Festival (Belgium), the Lockenhaus Festival (Austria), and the IMS Prussia Cove (Cornwall).
He plays a Ferdinand Gagliano, circa 1770.
