Santiago Cañón Valencia (born May 9, 1995 in Santafé de Bogotá) is a Colombian cellist.

Biography[edit]

Coming from a musical family (his father is a clarinetist in the Bogotá Philharmonic Orchestra and his sister is a violinist) he began studying cello at the age of four under the instruction of his mother Rocío Valencia and later with Henryk Zarzycki from 1999 to 2008.

In 2002 as the age of six, Cañón debuted as a soloist with the Bogotá Philharmonic Orchestra. That same year, he performed the Cello Concerto in A minor by Antonio Vivaldi at the León de Greiff Auditorium and at the Jorge Eliécer Gaitán Theater in Bogotá conducted by masetro Eduardo Carrizosa. He also was invited to perform as a soloist with the Cámara Orchestra of the University of Tolima conducted by masestro César Augusto Zambrano in the Tolima Theater.

At the age of nine, he performed the Cello Concerto in D major by Joseph Haydn with the Bogotá Philharmonic Orchestra.

He participated in masterclasses by highly-recognized cellists during the 2000s decade such as Aldo Parisot, William Molina Cestari, Peter Wispelwey]], Yo-Yo Ma, Alban Gerhardt, Andrés Díaz, Wolfgang Emmanuel Schmidt and Franz Helmerson.

Since August 2013, he pursued postgraduate studies with Andrés Diaz at Southern Methodist University SMU in Dallas, Texas.
