Practice early - platform for young talents
... "Maddox Marsollek at the piano has already been on the podium several times. He is now six years old and it's nice to see how he develops," says Marlies Krägel. The young pianist who lives in the Märkisch-Oderland district is an exceptional talent. "When I was three and a half years old I started taking piano lessons out of boredom. Only a few weeks later I was completely infected by the piano virus and I could no longer imagine my life without this instrument," he says on his website. At the age of four and a half he made his debut in the Schlosskirche Altlandsberg and has played concerts regularly ever since. He is tutored by the pianist and ECHO-Klassik award winner Elisaveta Blumina and also takes composition lessons. At the age of five, Maddox was the youngest up-and-coming musician to be invited to an international master class in Israel. He is the winner of various international competitions.
And Maddox's two year younger brother Miles is also talented. The four-year-old violinist is represented at the Young Artists' Panel for the first time. Together with his brother he plays an inspired by Latin music piece. Maddox is not the only one of the young talents who have been on stage in Schulzendorf quite often. ...
