Eva Zöllner studied classical accordion in Cologne and Copenhagen. She is one of the most active accordionists of her generation and is a passionate advocate of contemporary music. As an internationally sought-after artist, she presents projects ranging from experimental solo performances to collaborations with renowned orchestras. Concert tours have taken her to all continents; she is particularly interested in the countries of Central and South America with their lively contemporary music scene. Collaboration with composers around the world is an essential aspect of her work. As a result, she has premiered more than 300 works. In 2021 her book „Composing for the Accordion“ was published. In 2023 she successfully released her solo album „voces, señales“. Eva Zöllner is also active as a curator and cultural manager. She lives in Westerwald, Germany, and often travels to explore her instrument in various contexts and cultures.
