BIOGRAPHY

At twenty-seven years old, Canadian Jan Lisiecki performs over one hundred concerts a year around the world and has collaborated with conductors such as Sir Antonio Pappano, Yannick Nézet-Séguin, Daniel Harding, and Claudio Abbado. 

During the last season Jan Lisiecki presents a new recital program including Nocturnes and Etudes by Chopin in more than thirty cities around the world. 

He returned to perform with Boston Symphony Orchestra, Cleveland Orchestra, Philadelphia Orchestra, Filarmonica della Scala, Orchestra dell'Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia and Orpheus Chamber Orchestra for concerts at Carnegie Hall and the Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg. 

Jan Lisiecki recently presented the cycle of Beethoven's Lieder with baritone Matthias Goerne, also performing for the Salzburg Festival, and has appeared with New York Philharmonic, Chicago Symphony, Staatskapelle Dresden, Orchestre de Paris, WDR Sinfonieorchester Cologne and London Symphony Orchestra.

At fifteen he signed an exclusive contract with Deutsche Grammophon, which inaugurated the Beethoven Year 2020 with the release of a live recording of all five of Beethoven's Piano Concertos, presented at the Berlin Konzerthaus, with Lisiecki conducting the Academy of St Martin in the Fields from the piano. The subsequent publication of the cycle of Beethoven's Lieder performed with Matthias Goerne received a Diapason d'Or. 

His latest recording for DG is a double album containing the complete Chopin Nocturnes, which appeared in August 2021 and February 2022 on vinyl. His recordings have received JUNO and ECHO Klassik awards.

At only eighteen, Jan Lisiecki is the youngest artist in history to receive a Gramophone "Young Artist" Award, as well as a Leonard Bernstein Award from the Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival. In 2012, he was appointed UNICEF Ambassador to Canada.
