“They constantly think outside of the box, steering projects and collaborations so that they will nourish my artistic goals. Knowing that I can trust them to advocate for me and my work, and that no detail will go unnoticed, provides immense relief and freedom.” – Cadenza Artist

OUR JOURNEY

Cadenza Co-Founders, Julia Torgovitskaya Rapoport and Jennifer Rosenfeld, first started iCadenza in 2009 with the mission of empowering musicians for professional success. A year later, at the request of iCadenza clients, Cadenza Artists was launched with the vision to create an agency that was artist-centered and community-focused. And now, ten years later, Cadenza Artists has evolved into a full-service agency with a professional team that is committed to enabling communities to experience the transformative power of live performing arts.

“Cadenza has given me wings to fly.” – Lara Downes, Pianist

PARTNERING WITH ARTISTS

At our core, we create an environment in which the artists who entrust us with their careers, truly thrive – creatively and professionally. We approach each artist individually, infuse them with confidence, and empower them to inspire through their art. Together with our sister company, iCadenza, we work with artists to bolster their careers and open doors for them that will change their lives. The artists we work with are world-class performers, thought leaders, social activists, and changemakers who inspire us to, as one of our artists says, ”help them achieve not just what they desire, but what they could never even imagine.”

“In my performing and recording work, doors are opening wide to welcome the projects we are creating, and I am boundlessly excited about the adventures to come.” – Cadenza Artist

Our roster includes artists from all over the world. They are innovators, creators, and entrepreneurs who collaborate with visionary visual artists, virtual and augmented reality gurus, cultural impact experts and tech leaders, to create art that is as profound as it is immersive and moving.
