Randall Goosby
“For me, personally, music has been a way to inspire others” – Goosby’s own words sum up perfectly his commitment to being an artist who makes a difference. Signed exclusively to Decca Classics in 2020 at the age of 24, American violinist Randall Goosby is acclaimed for the sensitivity and intensity of his musicianship alongside his determination to make music more inclusive and accessible, as well as bringing the music of under-represented composers to light. Goosby was recently appointed to Juilliard School’s Preparatory Division and joins the Pre-College violin faculty beginning in Fall 2025.
Highlights of Randall Goosby’s 2025/26 season include debut performances with the Atlanta Symphony/Leonard Slatkin, Orchestre National de France/Cristian Măcelaru, KBS Symphony/Peter Oundjian, and San Diego Symphony/Kahchun Wong. Goosby returns to the San Francisco Symphony, Pittsburgh Symphony, and New Jersey Symphony. He appears in recital across North America and Europe with pianist Zhu Wang as well as with the Renaissance Quartet, and joins clarinetist Anthony McGill and pianist Joshua Mhoon in a program presented by the Philadelphia Chamber Music Society.
As of 2024/25, Goosby is a member of Konzerthaus Dortmund’s series “Junge Wilde”. He was the inaugural recipient of the 2024 Harmony for Change Award presented by Midori & Friends and also named the Cincinnati Symphony’s 24/25 MAC Music Innovator, a season-long residency in which he curated and lead community engagement activities with young musicians, and at historic cultural sites throughout the city of Cincinnat. Goosby was First Prize Winner in the 2018 Young Concert Artists International Auditions. In 2019, he was named the inaugural Robey Artist by Young Classical Artists Trust in partnership with Music Masters in London; and in 2020 Goosby became an Ambassador for Music Masters, a role that sees him mentoring and inspiring students in schools around the United Kingdom.
A former student of Itzhak Perlman and Catherine Cho, he received his Bachelor’s, Master’s and Artist Diploma degrees from the Juilliard School. He is an alumni of the Perlman Music Program and studied previously with Philippe Quint. He plays the Antonio Stradivarius, Cremona, “ex-Strauss,” 1708 on generous loan from Samsung Foundation of Culture.
