Jan Vogler (born February 18, 1964) is a German-born classical cellist who lives in New York City.[1]
Born in East Berlin, he studied first with his father Peter Vogler and subsequently with Josef Schwab in Berlin, Heinrich Schiff in Basel and Siegfried Palm. At the age of 20 he won the principal cello position of the Staatskapelle Dresden, becoming the youngest player in the history of this orchestra to hold that position.[1] He left the position in 1997 to pursue a solo career, moving to New York with his wife, violinist Mira Wang and their two children.[2] There he befriended Bill Murray[3] who joined him in 2017 for a musical recital in the Kulturpalast (Dresden).[4] The program, titled "New Worlds", was recorded for Decca Records, Murray's debut album, and toured in Germany and America, including the Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg[5] and Carnegie Hall in New York City.[6]
German composer Jörg Widmann dedicated his cello concerto Dunkle Saiten (Dark Strings, 2000) to Vogler.[7] Vogler has performed as soloist with the New York Philharmonic, Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Boston Symphony Orchestra, Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, Montreal Symphony Orchestra, Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, Mariinsky Theatre Orchestra, Staatskapelle Dresden, Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra, Stuttgart Radio Symphony Orchestra, Taiwan Philharmonic (NSO), and Vienna Symphony.[1] His regular recital partners include Hélène Grimaud.
He is a Sony recording artist, and his discography includes the Cello Suites of Johann Sebastian Bach, the Dvořák Cello Concerto with the New York Philharmonic,[8] the Schumann Cello Concerto, and other major works.[9]
His cello is the Castelbarco/Fau, made by Stradivari in 1707.[10]
