Mozes Rosenberg

Mozes Rosenberg is a Dutch guitarist who is widely recognized for his virtuosic playing style and mastery of gypsy jazz. He was born in a family of Romani musicians. His father, along with brothers and cousings, are all well-known guitarist in the gypsy jazz community. He is brother of Stochelo Rosenberg.

Mozes grew up surrounded by music, and it wasn’t long before he started playing the guitar himself. He began performing in public with his father and uncles when he was just 10 years old, and by the time he was a teenager, he was already an accomplished musician in his own right.

Over the years, Mozes has become known for his technical prowess on the guitar, as well as his ability to infuse his playing with emotion and soul. He is often compared to his uncle, Stochelo Rosenberg, who is considered one of the greatest gypsy jazz guitarists of all time.

He was part of different groups: Chawo Rosenberg, Rosenberg 3 and now The Rosenbergs, the band with other young talents Johnny Rosenberg and Sani van Mullem. Furthermore Mozes is a popular guest musician. He played among others with Big Band Sonic Blast, the Sinti Big Band and Ready ‘n Able. 

Later in 2006 he made a theatre tour with the ensemble Mediterranean Sundance, a Hot Club de France project with Nihad Hrustanbegovic, Harry Klunder, Watti Rosenberg, Faifie Reinhardt and Fremdo Rosenberg.

Next in 2007 another theatre tour started with Rosenberg Family. The following years 2008, 2009 and 2010 the family band kept on touring and played at the Muziekcentrum Frits Philips Jazz for the Edison Jazz Awards Ceremony. In 2010 Mozes also performed with singer Joke Bruijs en percussionist vibraphonist Fred Landesbergen under the name “On The Road”. The same year he toured Japan with Stochelo Rosenberg and Sani van Mullem.

The Japanese audience was very enthousiastic about his performance and it is clear Mozes has become a world class musician. In 2011 the group Rosenberg van Mullem started. Fruit of this project was the CD “Obsession”. Now the combination Mozes, Johnny and Sani are a well established group playing at many occasions as The Rosenbergs.

In 2015 the new family tour “La Familia” attracted a lot of attention. Mozes starred with The Rosenberg Trio and his cousin, singer Johnny Rosenberg. A great CD with the same name was issued containing some of the most famous songs from the American Song Book in the unique version of the Familia. February 2017 Mozes teamed up with the Tcha Limberger Trio for another amazing set of international concerts with this genius violin player and his band.

Mozes has performed at many renowned international festivals. In 2010 he played at the International Django Festival in Samois, the place where Django Reinhardt retired to and where each year the Django music is celebrated. Further he performed among others at North Sea Jazz, Festivale de Guitare de Patrimonio, Festival Jazz Sous le Palmiers, Dutch Jazz Awards and the International Gipsy Festival. His high quality performance earned him a busy career touring abroad but also regularly playing at Dutch theatres, jazz clubs and jazz festivals.

Despite his success, Mozes remains humble and dedicated to his craft. He continues to perform and record music, and his influence on the gypsy jazz community is undeniable. His passion for the guitar is evident in every note he plays, and he is sure to continue inspiring and delighting audiences for years to come.
