Conductor portrait
About

A return to artistry

For over two decades, Paul Anthony McRae led some of the world's most prestigious orchestras, earning acclaim for his interpretive depth and emotional precision. His performances were described as "transcendent" and "utterly transformative."

In 2014, at the height of his career, he stepped away from the spotlight. Not from exhaustion, but from a desire to rediscover what first drew him to music—the silence between notes, the breath before the baton rises.

Now, after a decade of reflection, study, and renewal, Maestro Voss returns with a profound new understanding of orchestral music and an unwavering commitment to its future.
