Alexandra developed her early musical interests as a violinist and pianist., before going on to read Music at the University of Oxford, where a particular focus of her scholarship was the psychology of musical performance and listening.  Following this, she remained in Oxford to complete a Graduate Diploma in Law, graduating with Distinction.

Upon moving to London in 2012, Alexandra took her first job in the classical music business as an Assistant Artist Manager at Harrison/Parrott.  She joined the team of International Classical Artists in 2013, where she worked closely with Chairman Stephen Wright across all fields of artist management, orchestral touring, project creation & production, consultancy, and audio/audio-visual media projects.  During this time, she enjoyed producing major international tours for orchestras such as the Oslo Philharmonic and the Boston Symphony Chamber Players, and working closely as a consultant to such organisations as the Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra and Florian Leonhard Fine Violins.  Alexandra’s passion has always been for artist management, where she has had the pleasure of managing such revered icons as Kyung Wha Chung and Sir James Galway, building swiftly rising careers for artists such as Alena Baeva and Joseph Bastian, and signing young prize-winning talents such as Moné Hattori and Anna Tsybuleva.

Alexandra became a Director of International Classical Artists (renamed Wright Music Management) in 2018, at the age of 28.  She launched Knight Classical Ltd in January 2020, where she now enjoys working closely with a wide range of management clients and creative projects.

Alongside music, Alexandra has a long-held fascination for foreign languages.  She speaks French and German, and has recently taken up the challenge of learning Russian.

Music has been a part of Angela’s life since very early on, she began her musical studies at the age of four, and she started playing the violin when she was eight years old. She holds a BMus from the Royal Conservatory of Madrid and the “Katarina Gurska” Conservatory. She was also a member of a string quartet for several years. Her love for chamber music led her to discover her passion for traveling as well, as the group toured Spain, Germany and Italy amongst other countries. Although her career started on stage, she was always fascinated with the professional work backstage. That’s why she decided to pursue a career in arts management.
