Juno Award winner, UNESCO Ambassador, and alumnus of The Royal Conservatory’s Glenn Gould School, Jan Lisiecki plays Preludes by Chopin, Bach, Messiaen, and Rachmaninov.
The remarkable pianist has been described as “perhaps the most 'complete' pianist of his age" (BBC Music Magazine) and his interpretations and technique speak to a maturity beyond his age. He has worked closely with conductors such as Antonio Pappano, Yannick Nézet-Séguin, Daniel Harding, Manfred Honeck, and Claudio Abbado. The New York Times has called him “a pianist who makes every note count.”
