Steven Moeckel


February 5, 2023
As concerto soloist, concertmaster, and recitalist, violinist Steven Moeckel has engaged audiences and critics worldwide with his virtuosity, vivid characterization and uncanny ability to capture the very essence of a work. His concerto repertoire encompasses everything from the standard classical and romantic masterpieces to the visceral virtuosity of the Shostakovich Concerto and Corigliano’s Red Violin. He was invited to China under the auspices of the newly formed Ling Tung Foundation, and was the first Western violinist to perform the beloved violin concerto, The Butterfly Lovers, with a Chinese orchestra.

Steven Moeckel has performed with Leon Fleisher and Menahem Pressler at Chicago’s famous Ravinia Festival and frequently appears in concert with William Wolfram. Notable performances include recitals at the Sewanee Summer Music Festival, the Colorado College Music Festival and the Sunriver Music Festival. With his long time partner pianist Paula Fan, Moeckel has toured Europe and the Americas, and performed the complete cycle of the ten Beethoven Sonatas three times to critical acclaim. Together they have recorded three albums. He most recently recorded an album with Indiana University pianist, Joanna Goldstein, celebrating  the works of women composers during the time of Suffrage, and in 2021 released his first solo violin album, Sei Solo, available on CD and for digital download.
