Her love for chamber music led Alina Pogostkina to form a string trio with violist Nimrod Guez and cellist Danjulo Ishizaka and the group has undertaken successful tours of Germany in recent seasons. Other esteemed artistic partners include Pekka Kuusisto, Joshua Bell, Jörg Widmann, Maximilan Hornung, Dorothee Oberlinger and I Sonatori de la Gioiosa Marca. Furthermore, she is a frequent guest at festivals such as Schleswig-Holstein, Salzburger Festspiele, Edinburgh International Festival, MDR Musiksommer, Bregenzer Festspiele, Istanbul Music Festival, Rheingau Musik Festival, Ludwigsburger Schlossfestspiele and Aix-en-Provence Easter Festival.

Alina Pogostkina displays impressive versatility in diverse and wide-ranging repertoire from baroque and classical – often played on gut strings – to modern masterworks. In 2018, following her desire to further explore the spiritual aspect of music, she created ​‘Mindful Music Making’, a specially curated programme which aims to bring empowerment, mindfulness and deeper exploration of individual creativity relevant to the 21^st Century classical musician.

St. Petersburg-born Alina Pogostkina grew up in Germany and received violin lessons from her father Alexander Pogostkin. She later studied with Antje Weithaas at Berlin’s Hochschule für Musik ​‘Hanns Eisler’, and baroque violin with Reinhard Goebel. Since the 2023/24 academic year she is Professor of Violin at Hochschule für Musik Basel. She plays on a Camillo Camilli violin from 1752.
