You may have heard his cello solos in the soundtrack to the 大象传媒's Sherlock series, or on the album 梅 (Divide) by Ed Sheeran. He released his latest solo album, Patina, in 2021.

Dobrawa Czocher is a Polish cellist who started playing at the age of seven. She鈥檚 an award-winning chamber and orchestra musician, and her motto is to never stop growing. At the start of 2023, she released her debut solo album, Dreamscapes.

Brazilian-born, Paris-based cellist Dom La Nena spent her teenage years studying cello in Buenos Aires with the renowned Christine Walevska, before a pop apprenticeship backing Jane Birkin. She鈥檚 one half of Birds on a Wire, and her stage name translates as 鈥淒om the Little Girl鈥�, an allusion to her time as a child prodigy.

Sebastian Plano is an Argentinian cellist, multi-instrumentalist, composer and producer, who is best known for his unique approach to music creation: Uninterrupted nights playing and recording every single note by himself in his Berlin studio, layering each musical phrase at a time.
