Bulgarian-born violinist Bella Hristova moved to the United States at age 13 and has studied at the University of Michigan and the Curtis Institute. She is a Winner of the 2008-09 YCA International Auditions, the Mortimer Levitt Career Development Award for Women Artists, and the Ruth Laredo Memorial Prize.
