Born on April 6, 1972, in Kazanlak, Bulgaria, Daniel M. Tringov’s path in music began at just six years old, when he started studying the violin. His talent quickly became apparent: in 1981, he won the Golden Medal at the Sixth National Music Festival in St. Zagora, Bulgaria, becoming the youngest contestant in his group.

Daniel continued his musical education at the Hristina Morfova School of Music in St. Zagora in 1985. His rapid progress led to his admission in 1988 to the National Music School, L. Pipkov, in Sofia, Bulgaria, where he studied under the celebrated violinist, teacher, and composer Peter Hristoskov.

After graduating high school in 1991, Daniel entered the National Music Academy, P. Vladigerov, in Sofia, studying violin with Professor Elisaveta Kazakova. Between 1991 and 1995, he played first violin in the New Symphony Orchestra. He then joined the “Teatro Lirico de Europe” Tour Opera Orchestra as first violinist from 1995 to 1999, performing across Bulgaria and Western Europe. In 1996, Daniel earned his Master of Music degree with honors.

In 1998, Daniel won Second Prize at the International Competition, Music and Earth, in Sofia, Bulgaria, as well as the Special Prize for virtuoso performance for “La Ronde des Lutins” by A. Bazzini, awarded in the name of renowned violinist Vasko Abadjiev. He also attended a master class with Professor Roza Fain in Varna that year.

In 1999, Daniel showcased his talents at the Concorso Internazionale di Violino “Premio Paganini” in Genova, Italy. He served as concertmaster of the Odeon Opera and Musical Theater Orchestra and performed with several groups, including the New Symphony and Bankya National Chamber Orchestras in Sofia and Upsala, Sweden, while giving solo recitals and collaborating in chamber ensembles.

Seeking to broaden his musical perspective, Daniel moved to the United States in 2002. He received a full scholarship in violin performance at the University of Southern Mississippi, studying with Professors Alexandre Brussilovsky and Steven Redfield. That October, he won the William Gower Concerto Award and performed Beethoven’s Violin Concerto in D with the university’s orchestra.

In 2004, Daniel began studying at the University of Southern California Thornton School of Music on a full merit scholarship. Under the guidance of Professor Alice Schoenfeld, he completed a Graduate Certificate in Violin Performance in 2006, graduating with honors and receiving a Certificate for Outstanding Academic Achievement.

In 2009, Daniel shifted focus to composing, arranging, and studio work, spending four years at his Global Art Entertainment Live Studio in Bethany, Connecticut, collaborating closely with his wife, cellist Sifei Wen-Tringov, and other renowned musicians.

Daniel and Sifei then spent four years in Sofia, Bulgaria, managing their production company, Global Art Entertainment, where Daniel directed creative activities as a recording artist, engineer, photographer, producer, and designer.

Their debut instrumental album, “A Whole New Instrumental World,” is currently in production. The album features 16 instrumental arrangements of well-known pieces, ranging from classical to hard rock. Daniel personally arranged all violin and cello parts, with innovative contributions from Alexander Popov. The album will be released on CD, DVD, and Blu-Ray, with a World Concert Tour scheduled for 2025–2027.

Daniel has also participated in various multicultural projects and live events, collaborating with artists such as Sifei Wen, Georgii Tcherkin, and the Sofia Soloists. In 2015, Daniel and Sifei founded the String Art Quartet, which features two violins and two cellos.

Daniel is now establishing Global Art Entertainment EU and Global Art Management EU in Munich, Germany, to produce concerts, recordings, and nurture emerging talents. He continues to perform with Sifei Wen-Tringov as the “String Fusion” violin and cello duo and collaborates with the Dorian Gray studio, affiliated with Sony Music.

His latest double album, “Sonatas and Pieces” Vol. 1, will feature two violin and piano sonatas and 13 romantic-virtuoso pieces, with a scheduled release by the end of 2025. Concert tours throughout Europe are planned for the 2026–2027 seasons, alongside Sifei Wen-Tringov—who is also a concert cellist, fashion designer, and model.
