American pianist Jonathan Biss, at the age of twenty-three, has already established a flourishing international reputation with his performances throughout North America and Europe. His exceptional promise has been recognized with the Gilmore Young Artist Award, Avery Fisher Career Grant, and Lincoln Center's Martin E. Segal Award. He was the first and only American chosen to participate in the BBC's New Generation Artist program. Performances with major symphony orchestras, including the New York Philharmonic, exceptional chamber ensembles, and acclaimed recital performances, he is poised to become a leader in the next generation of pianists - come and hear for yourself!
