Pianist EMMA TAHMIZIÀN

Lauded on her performances by the critics as "electrifying" and "stunning", Bulgarian-born pianist based in New York City, Emma Tahmiziàn, has won prizes at international piano competitions such as Van Cliburn, Tchaikovsky, Leeds, Montreal, Robert Schumann and Pro Musicis. In a wide variety of appearances in concert series and festivals throughout the USA and Europe as a recitalist, soloist with orchestra, a chamber musician, and a recording artist, she has garnered an international reputation for her tremendous scope of repertoire. Reflecting her affinity for broad spectrum and her vision of the correlation and coexistence of widely different epochs and styles, her programs span music of over three centuries, from Scarlatti to Crumb and Messiaen, from Beethoven to Ligeti, Bolcom, Corigliano and Mackey, among many others. She has been an inspiration for various composers, who have written and dedicated their works to her, and has premiered and recorded numerous new works. She was also a founding member of Mosaic, a renowned new music ensemble. Ms. Tahmiziàn has received her music degrees in piano performance from the Juilliard School and the Bulgarian State Conservatory of Music in Sofia. Her teachers included Julia and Konstantin Ganev (disciples of the legendary Russian pianist & pedagogue Heinrich Neuhaus), Adele Marcus and Yvonne Lefebure.
