First Prize winner of the 2010 Chopin International Piano Competition in Warsaw, Russian-born pianist Yulianna Avdeeva plays with power, conviction, and sensibility, having won over audiences all over the world. “Her pacing is born of intelligent feeling and clarity of thought, and her ability to finesse Chopin’s inner voices puts many to shame” (The Guardian). She is a favorite artist in Europe, with recurring concert engagements at the Warsaw Philharmonic and Rudolfinum in Prague, Pierre Boulez Saal in Berlin, Vienna Konzerthaus, and Elbphilharmonie Hamburg, and has also given concerts for Ukrainian Relief including one with legendary German violinist Anne-Sophie Mutter at the Lucerne Chamber Music Festival in Switzerland.
