Frauke Ticciati studied viola with Hans-Joachim Greiner and Bruno Giuranna at the University of the Arts Berlin and the Walter-Stauffer Academy in Cremona. Since her studies she has worked in numerous German orchestras in solo and tutti positions including Orchester der Deutschen Oper Berlin, the Orchester der Komischen Oper Berlin, Mecklenburgische Staatskapelle Schwerin and the Oldenburgisches Staatsorchester. From 2016 to 2023 she was associate principal viola with the Philharmonisches Orchester Bremerhaven. Frauke has often produced and performed multidisciplinary programmes which include choreographed dance together with instrumental performance. Passionate about chamber music, she has performed at festivals such as Davos Festival, Kammermusikfest Sylt and O/Modernt. When not playing the viola, she can be found on her bike, in a lake or in the forest, training for triathlons!
