76 years old (Born on March 13, 1949)
Happy Birthday, Emmy! From dazzling the world at seventeen by conquering the 1966 International Tchaikovsky Competition to inspiring countless students during your nearly two-decade tenure at Utrecht's Conservatory—your life's symphony has been nothing short of extraordinary.May your birthday be filled with as much joy and harmony as you've brought audiences worldwide. Here's hoping you celebrate today like a true virtuoso: passionately, gracefully—and perhaps with fewer broken violin strings than in those early practice days! Keep playing life's melody beautifully; after all these years, you're still hitting every note perfectly (and making it look easy!).
