Luxembourg's own Cathy Krier will be performing several concerts around Europe as part of the 'Rising Stars' series presented by the European Concert Hall Organisation (ECHO).

Conservatoire de Luxembourg alumnus Cathy Krier was selected as 'Rising Star' by ECHO and Philharmonie Luxembourg for the season 2015/16, which involves her performing a piece specially created for her by renowned German composer, Wolfgang Rhim, as well as appearances across Europe.

This month, concerts will be offered at the Palace of Arts in Budapest on 10 March, at the Konzerthus in Stockholm on 12 March, at Amsterdam's Concertgebouw on 16 March and at the Philharmonie of Cologne on 20 March 2016.

Born in the Grand Duchy in 1985, Cathy pursued an interest in piano from an early age at the Conservatoire de Luxembourg. She has since established an international career for herself, which has comprised performances across Europe, the US and China, as well as accolades such as Prix Norbert Stelmes and the IKB International Foundation Prize.
