Early Life & Classical Training

Alfiya was born and raised in Sochi, Russia, where she began playing violin at the age of five. Her talent was immediately evident: just seven months after picking up the instrument, she performed a solo with the Sochi Symphony Orchestra —an extraordinary achievement for any musician, let alone one still in childhood.

She continued advancing through Russia’s most competitive music education system, earning a place at the prestigious Secondary Special Music School – College. At age 15, she made the courageous decision to move over 1,200 miles alone to Kazan, the capital of the Republic of Tatarstan, to study at the Kazan State Conservatory alongside the country’s best young musicians.

During her years at the Conservatory, Alfiya won multiple national and international violin competitions and toured extensively throughout Russia and Europe as concertmistress of the Chamber Student Orchestra.

Where Did Alfiya Learn Violin?

At age 20, Alfiya relocated to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to attend Temple University’s Boyer College of Music and Dance — on a full scholarship awarded to musicians of extraordinary ability. During her time there, she was selected as a member of the internationally celebrated iPalpiti Artists International Orchestra, which gave her the opportunity to perform at some of the world’s most storied concert venues:

  • Carnegie Hall in New York City
  • Lincoln Center in New York City
  • Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles
  • Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts in Philadelphia

While completing her Master of Violin Performance, Alfiya was noticed by two prominent producers: Larry Gold, known for string arrangements for Justin Timberlake, Kanye West, and Lana Del Rey; and Kenny Lloyd, a sound engineer for Alicia Keys and Eminem. These collaborations expanded her artistic range into pop, hip-hop, and EDM — and set the stage for her emergence as Alfiya Glow.

Alfiya Glow was personally selected by Netflix to serve as the featured violinist in The Queen’s Ball: A Bridgerton Experience — Netflix’s most ambitious live event production, created in partnership with Shondaland and Fever.

Held at the historic Millennium Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles, the immersive experience transported guests into 1813 Regency-era London. The event drew national media coverage from The Today Show and E! News, and was attended by celebrities including the Kardashians and Simone Ashley (the lead star of Bridgerton Season 2).

At the heart of every performance was Alfiya herself — appearing in a powdered wig and Mozart-era attire before stepping forward to deliver breathtaking live violin solos that became the defining moment of the show for audiences night after night.

For Alfiya, being chosen by Netflix is what every step of her career was building toward — classical training, live performance mastery, and real cultural impact, all in one role.
