Biography

Came, went and came back.

Ivan is a passionate grandmaster of his instrument, the cello, as well as an entrepreneur in music and technology. With his music label Rhythmic Dog he releases music by groundbreaking ensembles and individuals. As a cellist he performs classical repertoire with equal ease and persuasiveness as he does innovate projects, which plumb the depths of the cello’s potential all the way to Indie Rock, and which spotlight his musical versatility.

As the founder and member of such successful bands and ensembles as The Erlkings, New Piano Trio or The Hidden Cameras, he has made guest appearances in such venues as the Konzerthaus Berlin, Barbican Hall and Wigmore Hall in London, Allianz Arena in Munich, the Konzerthaus in Vienna, and the Sendesaal of the radio station WDR in Cologne. With his sparkling musical enthusiasm he has captivated audiences at large festivals such as the Schleswig Holstein Music Festival, the Heidelberg Frühling or the Schubertiade Hohenems. Ivan creates great moments on stage through his talent, ability, and musical passion – regardless of the type of music that is being played.

As an entrepreneur he worked worldwide as Head of Business Development and as Product Manager in Start-ups in Music and Technology. Currently Ivan is establishing the collective Pool of Invention together with his longstanding musical partner Florian Willeitner. The POI is an artist collective that creates interdisciplinary and transcultural projects through artistic vision and business expertise.
