The French-Egyptian violist Sindy Mohamed is one of the most sought-after young musicians of her generation. As a soloist and chamber musician, she is regularly invited to renowned international festivals and the world’s most important concert halls, including Carnegie Hall in New York, the Teatro Colón in Buenos Aires, the Berlin Philharmonie and Wigmore Hall, where she collaborates with artists such Isabelle Faust, Daniel Barenboim, Emmanuel Pahud and Elisabeth Leonskaja.

In the 2024/2025 season, Sindy Mohamed’s first album, which she recorded together with the renowned pianist Julien Quentin, will be released by Berlin Classics.

The violist was born in Marseille. Although she does not come from a musical family, she received her first viola lessons at the age of seven. Already at an early age she decided to make music her career.

Sindy Mohamed plays a viola by Matteo Goffriller, generously loaned to her through the Beare’s International Violin Society by the Miller-Porter Collection, a collaboration between the Irene R. Miller and JP Charitable Foundations with the aim of providing musicians with Venetian string instruments.
