Daniel Ciobanu

Here is our first offering of music from the artists due to visit us this year.  An experiment to see how much interest this generates.

Daniel Ciobanu first attracted international acclaim in 2017 at the Arthur Rubinstein Competition in Tel Aviv where he won both Silver Medal and Audience Prize.  He subsequently appeared at Carnegie Hall, Elbphilharmonie Hamburg, Gewandhaus Leipzig, Konzerthaus Berlin, St John’s Smith Square in London, Enescu Festival in Bucharest, and toured in Japan, China, Taiwan, South Africa and Brazil.

Daniel's distinctive musical personality and technical command has led to performances with orchestras such as Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen, Israel Philharmonic and Israel Camerata, Royal Scottish National Orchestra, George Enescu Philharmonic and Romanian National Radio Orchestra.

“A full and luminous sound, immense pianistic poise, sensibility, an originality without overwhelming ego” (Alain Lompech). 

This recording is of Daniel's performance of Prokofiev’s 3^rd Piano Concerto at the competition, preceded by a short introduction to the competition and a little talk by Daniel recorded in May 2020.  The concerto starts approximately 8 minutes in.
