Rafał Blechacz

An exceptional pianist between Chopin and Viennese classical music, fascinatingly reserved
He holds a doctorate in philosophy and is also one of the best pianists of our time. Rafał Blechacz possesses an extraordinary sense of depth. At the same time, he is completely devoid of any star attitude. He is an exceptional phenomenon in a world of fast-paced success.
He only gives a limited number of concerts each year. He lives a very rural and secluded life. He has mastered the finer points of piano playing like few others. His sounds seem to have been born under a magnifying glass. That is why his art is timeless in the best sense of the word. All this makes Rafał Blechacz an interesting personality and an extremely inspiring musician. He feels particularly close to the works of his compatriot Frédéric Chopin. Viennese classical music is also one of his main areas of focus.
