Recognised as a truly exciting and versatile violinist, Moreno has collaborated alongside Sol Gabetta, Bertrand Chamayou, and Kirill Gerstein, and was the youngest member of the prestigious Alexander von Humboldt Stiftung. She has won international violin competitions such as the Henryk Szeryng International violin competition, Concertino Praga, Pablo Sarasate International Violin Competition, as well as being awarded with the ECHO Rising Star.
