Cameron Crozman

Cellist Cameron Crozman, praised for his “rich imagination and sharp mind” (Diapason), received the Canada Council for the Arts’ Virginia Parker Prize in 2021 and was named Radio-Canada’s 2019–2020 Classical Music Révélation. He performs in recital and as a soloist in major halls such as the Philharmonie de Paris, the Shanghai Oriental Arts Centre, and Toronto’s Koerner Hall, and with some of the most renowned orchestras in Canada and Europe. A devoted chamber musician, he frequently shares the stage with distinguished artists including James Campbell, James Ehnes, Augustin Hadelich, and Louis Lortie.

After studying with Paul Pulford in Canada, Cameron pursued further training at the Conservatoire de Paris in the class of Michel Strauss, where he graduated with highest honours, and he was selected for Gautier Capuçon’s Classe d’excellence de violoncelle at the Fondation Louis Vuitton.

He has recorded albums under the ATMA Classique and Printemps des Arts de Monte-Carlo labels, and his performances have been broadcast on Radio-Canada, Radio France, the BBC, and medici.tv. He is actively involved in commissioning and premiering new works for cello from leading Canadian composers, including Allan Gordon Bell, Kelly-Marie Murphy, and Alexina Louie.

Cameron is the cofounder of ClassicalValley—an Okanagan Valley festival combining music and wine—and serves as artistic director for chamber music at the Edeta Arts Festival in Llíria (Spain), a UNESCO Creative City of Music.
