Sayaka Shoji (庄司 紗矢香, Shōji Sayaka?, born 30 January, 1983) is a Japanese classical violinist. She is the first Japanese and youngest winner at the Paganini Competition in Genoa in 1999.

She was born into an artistic family (her mother is a painter, grandmother is a poet) and spent her childhood in Siena, Italy. She studied at Hochschule für Musik Köln under Zakhar Bron and graduated in 2004. Her other teachers have included Sashko Gawrillow, Uto Ughi and Shlomo Mintz.

Zubin Mehta has been her strong supporter. When Ms. Shoji auditioned for him in 2000, he immediately changed his schedule in order to make her first recording with the Israel Philharmonic possible in the following month, then invited her to perform with Bavarian State Opera and Los Angeles Philharmonic.

Since then Ms.Shoji is regularly invited to many prominent orchestras, including the Israel Philharmonic, Berlin Philharmonic, London Symphony Orchestra, Baltimore Symphony, St. Petersburg Philharmonic Orchestra, Orchestra dell'Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia and WDR Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Lorin Maazel, Yuri Temirkanov and Semyon Bychkov.

Sayaka Shoji records with Deutsche Grammophon and performs on the 1715 "Joachim" Stradivarius on loan from the Nippon Music Foundation.

  • 素晴らしい演奏をありがとうございます(^o^)

  • 庄司さんの演奏を見てクラシックがより好きになりましたo(^▽­^)o

  • during last long note (yeahh accomplished.. mhmm!)

  • @classicalalways

    and wtf can you do??

  • mama mia, really beautiful. Brava..

  • 楽曲に対するひたむきさ、愛情、豊かな情感といったものが画面か­ら滲み出ています。気品に満ちた堂々とした演奏であります。時折­見せる笑顔が素敵です。

    日本の誇れる宝として、益々精進されもっともっと輝いて欲しい逸­材です。

  • brillian!

    

  • @ralphreikashow 小提琴家 Ryu Goto 五嶋 龍 (布拉姆斯D大調小提琴協奏曲 第三樂章).flvも見ましたか?

  • ブラームスのバイオリンコンチェルト、他のバイオリニストの演奏­もたくさん見ましたが、どうしてそんなに早く弾く必要があるのだ­ろうか?と首を傾げたくなるほど。私は庄司さんの演奏が1番心に­響きます。ゆっくりめに音を丁寧に響かせて、私たちにしっかり聴­かせてくれるような演奏。そして、薄めのメイク・服・髪などから­も分かるように、音楽に徹している真摯さとあいまって、心が打た­れます。そして、時折見せる笑顔に、音楽と演奏への彼女の愛情を­感じます。特に日本での震災後、彼女の演奏を見て勇気をもらって­います。

  • She is one of my best favorite violinists, but unfortunately here the sound and the video are not synchronous and the sound stops just a second at 0:48.

    You can enjoy exactly the same performance without mismatch between sound and video at "Brahms violin concerto" by ”livenicovideo”. All movements 1 through 3 are there !

    [Japanese translation] 庄司さん大好きですが、画像と音楽が合っていなくて、0:48で­音が消えてしまうのも残念。"Brahms violin concerto" で検索すると、livenicovideoさんの動画が見つかる­はずです。全く同じ演奏が第1~3楽章まで堪能できますよ。彼女­の繊細な感性に拍手!乾杯!
