Johannes Moser is a German-Canadian cello virtuoso known for pushing classical boundaries with infectious energy and genre-blending curiosity. Born into a musical family in 1979, this Tchaikovsky Competition laureate shreds cello strings with equal passion whether tackling thorny contemporary works or reinventing classics – like his cheeky arrangement of Elgar’s “Salut d’amour” or teaming up with guitarist Xuefei Yang for a guitar-cello twist on Schubert. Recent releases like *Songs of Joy and Sorrow* and *Live at the Concertgebouw* showcase his collaborative spirit (see those pipa and guitar team-ups!) and knack for making concert halls feel like cozy listening rooms. When he’s not touring globally or snagging Opus Klassik awards, Moser moonlights as a musical bridge-builder, splicing European traditions with global influences – all while making that 300-year-old cello sound suspiciously like the coolest instrument in the room.
