BIO
ANDREA MOLTENI
An exciting young Italian piano talent, the 27-year-old Andrea Molteni is building his international profile with regular appearances in the US, Australia, Japan, China, Singapore, UK, Italy, France, Germany, Switzerland and Turkey.
Three albums, recently released on Brilliant Classics and broadcast on France Musique, Germany’s MDR Kultur and Radio Classica in Italy, have received international praise: the complete piano works of Petrassi and Dallapiccola, a selection of Scarlatti sonatas, and Beethoven: Con alcune licenze, featuring Hammerklavier, Op. 110 and The Grosse Fuge, never before recorded in a piano solo version.
At the age of 15, Mr. Molteni received a special scholarship of Cercle Wagner Association in France, which allowed him to participate at the Bayreuth Festival celebrating the 200th anniversary of Richard Wagner, as well as to perform a series of concerts in Nice, Menton, Cannes, and Monte Carlo. In the same year, Mr. Molteni formed a youth orchestra, “L’Orchestra del Lago”, which he conducted and played with.
Since then he has played at the Esplanade in Singapore, Forbidden City Concert Hall in Beijing, Shanghai Oriental Art Center, Scriabin Museum in Moscow, Verbrugghen Hall of the Sydney Conservatorium of Music in Sydney, DiMenna Center in New York, Wiener Saal of the Mozarteum University in Salzburg, Concert Hall of Chopin Music University in Warsaw, Werner Recital Hall of the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music, Teatro del Casinò in Sanremo, and other venues around the world.
He regularly performs with orchestras, such as the Orchestra Sinfonia di Sanremo, Orchestra Antonio Vivaldi, Orchestra Filarmonica Mihail Johra, and Orchestra of the Costa Rica University.
