Club Amadeus is a series of four exclusive events showcasing top-tier classical artists in private, elegant settings.

In 2025, he will join the faculty at The Royal Conservatory of Music’s Glenn Gould School in Toronto. Earlier this year, Nel was announced as Mainly Mozart’s Artistic Partner for the 2025 and 2026 seasons. A longtime friend of the organization, Nel first joined the All-Star Orchestra Festival in 1989—as the festival’s very first featured soloist on the outdoor stage at The Old Globe.
