Ms. Harnoy has won five JUNO Awards and BBC Music Magazine wrote: “An artist of undoubled calibre… Ofra Harnoy dazzles! We look forward to the new album!”
Ofra Harnoy has established herself as one of the greatest cellists on the world’s concert stage. She is one of Canada’s most celebrated personalities and is a Member of the Order of Canada. When she joined the international artist roster of RCA Victor Red Seal in 1987, Harnoy became the first Canadian classical instrumental soloist since Glenn Gould to sign an exclusive worldwide contract with a major record label.
Ofra Harnoy was born in Israel and immigrated to Canada at age 6. She studied with William Pleeth, Vladimir Orloff, Mstislav Rostropovich and participated in master classes with Janos Starker, Pierre Fournier, and Jacqueline du Pré. She has given concerts on five continents and has played at the request of Prince Charles, President Bill Clinton, three Canadian prime ministers, and several times for the Japanese Imperial Family.
Harnoy has recorded more than 40 solo albums and commands a vast repertoire. Her many recording and live collaborations include Placido Domingo, Sting, Sir Charles Mackerras, Loreena McKennitt, Colin Tilney, Igor Oistrakh, Jesse Cook, Cyprien Katsaris, Claudio Scimone, Charles Dutoit, Jeffrey Tait, Anton Kuerti, and Emmy Verhey.
In June 2019, Harnoy married musician and producer Mike Herriott, with whom she now collaborates for live performances and recordings.
