About Josephine Vains

Josephine Vains is an Australian cellist, chamber musician and educator, with a performance career encompassing modern and historical cello. An adventurous spirit has taken her to some far-flung concert venues - from a 1000-year-old cave in the heart of China to mountain-top Bach in the French Alps. These days she performs throughout Australia and beyond with Firebird Trio, Accademia Arcadia, Elysium Ensemble, Ensemble Old & New, Gryphon Baryton Trio, Imaginista Quartet, Melbourne Baroque Orchestra and CellOZ. A regular collaborator with living composers, she has recorded on modern and period instruments for Resonus Classics, DRS2 (Switzerland), ABC Classics, Tall Poppies and HUSH. Josephine relishes working with the cello and chamber music students as staff at Victorian College of the Arts Secondary School and the Melbourne Conservatorium of Music at the University of Melbourne. A passion for string pedagogy has led to her presenting classes and lectures for AUSTA and VMTA, as well as ongoing work as a senior cello examiner with the AMEB and consultant for the new AMEB Cello Syllabus.
