ZHdK signs Sitkovetsky and Malov
The Department of Music at Zurich University of the Arts (ZHdK) has announced two new teaching appointments: From the 2017/18 academic year, Alexander Sitkovetsky and Sergey Malov will teach violin as a major subject.
Alexander Sitkovetsky studied at the Menuhin School and with Maxim Vengerov, among others; he currently teaches at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester and at the Royal Academy of Music in London. He will move to Zurich with his family and continue his worldwide concert activities as a soloist and chamber musician from there.
Sergey Malov - like Sitkovetsky, born in 1983 - studied violin and viola at the Mozarteum University in Salzburg and at the Hanns Eisler Hochschule in Berlin with Thomas Riebl and Antje Weithaas respectively, in whose classes he also worked as an assistant. In 2014, Malov was a substitute professor at the Stuttgart University of Music and Performing Arts.
