Meet the Artists!

  Zulfiya (Zulya) Bashirova is currently the Associate Principal Second Violin in Toledo Symphony and the Assistant Concertmaster at Des Moines Metro Opera. She began her violin studies at the age of seven at the Uspensky Music School for Gifted Children in her hometown, Tashkent, Uzbekistan. She is a prize winner of multiple national and international competitions, including Glazunov International Competition of Violinists, National Society of Arts & Letters, and the Lynn University Concerto Competition.

 

   Ericsson Hatfield is a composer, violinist, and educator. His compositions integrate classical and modern techniques to create a fresh musical language. As a composer, he received first prize in the 2018 Tribeca New Music Festival for his violin quartet Constellations. He remains as an active teacher and performer and is the Co-Founder of Insight Chamber Players in San Francisco.

 

Elizabeth (Ellie) Lee began her cello studies with Metta Watts and Thomas Kraines when she was ten years old in Philadelphia. From winning competitions to performing with orchestras, she has appeared in well-known venues including the Marian Anderson Hall (Verizon Hall) at the Kimmel Center, Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall, the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts, and the Seoul Arts Performing Center. As an orchestral musician, Ellie joined the Fort Wayne Philharmonic as a full-time cello section member in 2019.

 

   Elizabeth Rice has been helping hold down the low end of the Toledo Symphony since joining its cello section in 2018. Elizabeth was previously a member of the Lexington Philharmonic and Des Moines Metro Opera and has performed with various other orchestras including the Cincinnati Symphony and Alabama Symphony. Chamber music has always been an especially beloved medium, so naturally Elizabeth loves collaborating with friends and colleagues whenever possible.

 

   Colombian-American violist Javier Otalora is an enthusiastic orchestral, chamber, and contemporary music player. He has performed with the Cincinnati, Detroit, Dallas, and St. Louis Symphony Orchestras. He was also a member of the Aspen Conducting Orchestra and the International Contemporary Ensemble.

He now spends his summer as a member of the Chautauqua Symphony Orchestra (NY).
