Daniel Müller-Schott (born 1976)[1] is a German cellist.

Born in Munich,[2] he studied with Walter Nothas, Austrian cellist Heinrich Schiff and British cellist Steven Isserlis.[3] Violinist Anne-Sophie Mutter personally coached him in her foundation,[4][5] thanks to which he could later spend one year studying with Mstislav Rostropovich.[1] Aged 15, he aroused enthusiasm by winning the first prize in the International Tchaikovsky Competition for Young Musicians in Moscow in 1992.[1][2]

He plays a cello by Matteo Goffriller, Venice, 1727.[5]

He has worked with world-renowned conductors such as Vladimir Ashkenazy, Charles Dutoit, Christoph Eschenbach, Kurt Masur, Sakari Oramo and André Previn. He recorded and released the Mozart Piano Trios in 2006 with Anne-Sophie Mutter and André Previn.[4] With Angela Hewitt, he has recorded Beethoven's complete works for cello and piano.[6]
