With her unique style that challenges many traditional ideas about the music that can be played with a violin, Lucia Micarelli is described as an incredible stage presence with an intense level of energy and talent. Born in Queens, New York, by the age of three, Micarelli was heavily immersed in the arts, diligently practicing dance, piano and violin. It didn’t take long for her to discover her passion and greatest talent was the violin, which quickly became her main focus.

After moving to Hawaii at the age of 5, she continued to refine her skills on the violin and just a year later at the age of 6, Micarelli made her debut as a soloist with the Honolulu Symphony Orchestra. Her popularity as a violinist was on the rise and she frequently began appearing on local television shows and at prestigious events throughout the Islands.

Micarelli had a special gift, making the highly esteemed Julliard School of Music the perfect place for her to further her studies. She remained at Julliard for seven years where she had become a regular on the competition circuit, winning a dozen international competitions and performing extensively in concert halls throughout The United States.

When Micarelli left Julliard in 2001, she started moonlighting with local jazz and rock bands in New York clubs and by the following year, she had accepted an offer to tour with the Trans-Siberian Orchestra as a featured violinist and concertmaster.

Micarelli was on the verge of a major breakthrough as her profile continued to soar. She received a call from Josh Groban in 2004 inviting her to tour with him, performing as a guest soloist throughout his “Closer” tour. Later that year, she had signed a recording contract with Warner Brothers Records and released her first album “Music From a Farther Room” to glowing reviews. After releasing her latest album “Interlude”, Lucia Micarelli was most recently cast as the role of "Annie" in HBO's critically acclaimed series, Treme. Micarelli speaks and plays with maturity and authority, touching on every musical style imaginable all built on the firm foundation of her lengthy classical training and the violin repertoire of the great composers.
