Nicholas Angelich (Piano)

Born in the USA in 1970, Nicholas Angelich began studying the piano at the age of five with his mother. At the age of seven, he gave his first concert with Mozart’s Twenty-First Concerto (K. 467) and at the age of thirteen he entered the Conservatoire National in Paris where he studied under Aldo Ciccolini, Yvonne Loriod, Michel Bйroff and Marie Franзoise Bucquet. During his studies Nicholas won First Prize for piano and chamber music performing.
The musician has attended master-classes given by such virtuosi as Leon Fleisher, Dmitri Bashkirov, and Maria Joгo Pires. In 1989 Angelich won the Second Prize at the International Robert Casadesus Piano in Cleveland and in 1994 he took First Prize at the International Gina Bachauer Piano Competition. In 1996 the musician was invited to collaborate with the International Piano Foundation of Cadenabbia (Italy), while in 2002 at the International Klavierfestival Ruhr (Germany) he won the Young Talent Award from Leon Fleischer. He also performed there in 2003.

The pianist’s debut with the New York Philharmonic Orchestra under Kurt Masur took place at the Lincoln Center in May 2003. Vladimir Jurowski invited Nicholas to open the 2007–08 season of the Russian National Orchestra in Moscow.

During his tours to countries throughout the world, Nicholas Angelich – a great interpreter of both classical and romantic works – has performed all of Beethoven’s sonatas and Liszt’s Annйes de pиlerinage cycle. The pianist also has a keen interest in 20th century music, first and foremost that of Prokofiev, Shostakovich, Bartуk, Ravel, Messiaen, Stockhausen, Pierre Boulez, Йric Tanguy and Pierre Henry, who dedicated his Concerto for Piano without Orchestra to him.
