Performance/Teaching Experience
Pianist Alessandro Mazzamuto is "one of the most inspiring, extraordinary pianists that I have had the joy to
hear" writes Martha Argerich. He is "no virtuoso of show, no ruthless technician, but a pianist absorbed in the
music who plays with as much spontaneity as poetry," claims Pizzicato Magazine (Germany). Winner of
International Classical Music Awards' 2013 Young Instrumental Artist of the Year, the 27-year-old Sicilian
pianist has won more than 60 national and international competitions in piano and chamber music.
Mazzamuto has appeared as soloist with orchestras such as La Verdi (Milan), the Rias Berlin Youth Orchestra
(Germany), the Chamber Orchestra of Kiev (Ukraine), the Philharmonic Orchestra of Ploesti (Romania), and
the Bacau Philharmonic Orchestra (Romania), with conductors such as Daisuke Soga, Amaury du Closel,
John Axelrod, Tomasz Bugaj, Ovidiu Balan, Valentin Doni, Ovidiu Marinescu, and Epifanio Comis. He has
performed in numerous European, North American, and South American venues such as Carnegie Hall
(New York), the Salle Cortot (Paris), Opera House "La Fenice" (Venice), Maly Hall of the Moscow
Conservatoire (Russia), University Romano of Bacau (Romania), Il Tempio (Florence), Auditorium Giuseppe
Verdi (Milan), Caruth Auditorium (Dallas), Centro Cultural Kirchner (Buenos Aires), Auditorium Juan Bautista
Gutiérrez (Guatemala City), Teatro Massimo Bellini (Italy – Catania), etc. Most recently, his New York debut
recital at Carnegie Hall was a sold out standing ovation concert.
