Ilia Laporev was born in Ghent, Belgium, in 1990. He comes from a very musical traditional family trained at the Moscow Conservatory. Ilia began playing the cello at the age of nine, studying with his father Ilia Laporev Sr., along with Hans Mannes and with Vladimir Perlin. At the age of 16, Ilia went to study with Clemens Hagen, at the Mozarteum University in Salzburg. Later studies are with Justus Grimm at the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp and with Jerome Pernoo at the Conservatoire Nationale Superieur de Musique in Paris.

Ilia performed as an soloist with several Belgian, Dutch and Brazilian symphonic orchestras. Recent appearances have included various recitals, solo, chamber music and orchestra concerts in Brazil, Belgium, France, England and Luxembourg.

From 2015 until 2018, Ilia was the Principal cello of the São Paulo State Symphony orchestra(OSESP), with Marin Alsop as musical director. During Ilia’s time in Brazil, he was invited to give masterclasses and concerts at important international music festivals such as ‘Festival internacional de musica Campos de Jordão’ and ‘Festival internacional de musica SESC’ in Pelotas. Since his return to Europe he is playing frequently with leading orchestras such as the London Philharmonic and Orchestre Philharmonique du Luxembourg as invited cello (co)leader.

Ilia plays on a cello build by J. B. Lefebvre, anno 1763 Amsterdam, which sounds in his hands colourful and deep.
