Miloš

guitar

Firmly positioned as a leading exponent of his instrument, Miloš (guitar) has appeared in some of the most important concert halls and at major festivals around the world, including with the Chicago Symphony, Philadelphia Orchestra, Los Angeles Philharmonic, and Cleveland Orchestra.

His first three releases on Deutsche Gram­mophon achieved chart-topping successes around the globe and transformed him overnight into “classical music’s guitar hero” (BBC Music Magazine). His recording of Rodrigo’s concerto with Yannick Nézet-Séguin and the London Philharmonic had the Sunday Times calling him “The King of Aranjuez,” while his Blackbird: The Beatles Album—including duets with Gregory Porter, Tori Amos, Steven Isserlis, and Anoushka Shankar—was released to unanimous praise. Miloš’ 2019 album, Sound of Silence, joined his previous recordings, in reaching No. 1 on the UK classical charts, and on Amazon.

Miloš is the first-ever classical guitarist to have performed in solo recital at London’s Royal Albert Hall. In August 2018, he made a triumphant return to the hall at the BBC Proms, where he performed the world premiere of Joby Talbot’s guitar concerto, Ink Dark Moon, written for him, with the BBC Symphony Orchestra. Committed to commissioning new repertoire for the guitar, Miloš joined the NAC Ottawa in May 2019 to perform another concerto written for him, The Forest by Howard Shore.

In 2021, Miloš released his sixth album, The Moon and the Forest, featuring the Talbot and Shore concertos as well as Ludovico Einaudi’s Full Moon and Schumann’s Traumerei.

Miloš is also a prolific radio and TV presenter and a passionate supporter of music education. He acts as a Patron of the Mayor of London Fund for Young Musicians and the Awards for Young Musicians. Miloš records exclusively for Decca Classics, and BBC Music Magazine included him among six of the greatest classical guitarists of the last century. He lives in London and performs on a 2007 Greg Smallman guitar.
