Vanessa Moss

Violin

Violinist Vanessa Moss is an avid chamber musician and orchestral leader based in the Pacific Northwest. As Concertmaster, she has served the Walla Walla Symphony Orchestra since 2022 and the Mid-Columbia Symphony since 2019.

She is a founding member of the Glass House String Quartet, a Seattle-based ensemble dedicated to bringing innovative, community-focused programs to unique spaces. She has been a performing artist with the Walla Walla Chamber Music Festival, has played string quartets while rafting the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon, and can be found performing chamber music in dimly lit rooms across the region.

An in-demand freelance artist, she performs regularly with the Northwest Sinfonietta and Spokane Symphony, and has appeared with touring productions including Andrea Bocelli and Trans-Siberian Orchestra. In addition to her performing career, she feels fortunate to teach young, inspiring violinists and is passionate about fostering growth, confidence, and curiosity in her students.

She is happy to return to Lake Chelan Bach Fest for her second season as Principal Second Violin. When not in rehearsal, she is likely outside—soaking up the sun and reveling in the geology of the Pacific Northwest.
