Josefine Opsahl (born 18 January 1992) is a Danish composer and cellist based in Copenhagen and Berlin. She writes classical music and also performs as a solo artist combining cello, live electronics and sound design, working at the intersection of classical tradition and electronic music. She has written three full-length operas, ballet music and orchestral works, and has received honours including the Léonie Sonning Talent Prize (2021) and the Crown Prince Couple's Stardust Award (2022).
Opsahls cellokoncert HANDS II fik verdenspremiere med Copenhagen Phil i januar 2026 og blev fremhævet af Politiken som en af aftenens højdepunkter.
Albummet Cytropia blev i 2025 nomineret til den hollandske Edison Award som bedste neoklassiske album, op mod bl.a. Max Richter.
Opsahl udgav sit andet soloalbum Cytropia på det tyske label Neue Meister, der forener klassisk cello med elektroniske klangverdener.
Operaen Ekko, som Opsahl skrev til Copenhagen Opera Festival, havde premiere i august 2025.
I 2024 blev Opsahls opera Hjem nomineret til Årets Reumert som Årets Opera 2023.
