Adam Golka with Piano Concert in New York - Debut

One of the foremost pianists of our time, Sir András Schiff has chosen three young, accomplished pianists to present a new generation of great musicians in a new series in New York and Berlin.

Born and raised in Texas to a family of Polish musicians, Adam Golka received the 2008 Gilmore Young Artist Award and took first prize in the 2003 China Shanghai International Piano Competition. He has appeared at Carnegie Hall, Caramoor, Mostly Mozart and Bargemusic and leading orchestras throughout the US. He studied with Leon Fleisher, and continues his work in master classes with Sir András Schiff, Richard Goode and Mitsuko Uchida.

About his program, Adam Golka says, “I have always wanted to hear these works juxtaposed, not only because of their glaring historical connection, but also because of the shared spirit of fearlessness behind these two works.” Read his full commentary on the Program Notes tab.
