About
Conductor and Classical Guitarist Michael Poll has performed across North America, South America, and Europe, including in Barbican Hall, Wigmore Hall, and the National Theatre of Panama. His debut guitar recording, 7-String Bach, was called ‘masterful’ by Gramophone magazine, and Wholenote praised his ‘Warm, rich, and full tone’. Since its release by Orchid Classics in 2018, 7-String Bach has been streamed over 1 million times on Spotify and Apple Music, and was featured on the BBC and Classic FM.
In 2022 Poll conducted the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra at Lancaster House in a programme of new works by Ian Venables, Odaline de la Martinez, Daniel Thomas Davis, and Shruthi Rajasekar. Upcoming conducting engagements include Central City Opera and Virginia Tech.
Michael is the founder of SoundingLab, a charity that uses music to inspire young people to engage with mentorship and improve their educational outcomes, and serves on the Board of the Southwark Music Service in London.
