Claudio Bohórquez is acclaimed by conductors, audiences, event organisers and critics alike as one of the most exciting and fascinating musical personae of his generation. He studied with David Geringas and Boris Pergamenschikow. Kronberg Academy furthered his career through the award of the Landgrave of Hesse Prize, for example, and his involvement in Chamber Music Connects the World. In 2000 he was the most successful participant in the first International Pablo Casals Competition arranged by Kronberg Academy, collecting three awards, including first prize. Marta Casals Istomin presented him with Pablo Casals’ Goffriller cello on loan to him for two years. He also won first prize at the Geneva International Music Competition.

Claudio Bohórquez now performs throughout the world. He works with many of the most famous conductors such as Daniel Barenboim, Rafael Frühbeck de Burgos, Christoph Eschenbach, Sir Neville Marriner and Krzysztof Penderecki and gives concert performances with many of the leading German and international orchestras – in Japan with the NHK Symphony Orchestra Tokyo and the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra and in the USA with almost every major orchestra in that nation. Claudio Bohórquez has made an impressive number of CD recordings, radio recordings and television appearances. He plays a violoncello by G B Rogeri, which is on loan to him from the Landesbank Baden-Württemberg.
