One of the most sought-after Italian pianists of his generation,
Giuseppe Albanese has performed throughout Italy and abroad, with praise
for his performances as "ravishingly beautiful" and
"truly superlative". First prize winner at Premio Venezia, the most
important national piano competition in Italy, Albanese also won the
first prize at London 2003 Vendome Prize International
Piano Competition, headed by Sir Jeffrey Tate and defined by Le
Figaro as "the piano world's most prestigious award". He was also
awarded the special prize for the
'best execution of contemporary music' at the 54th Busoni International Piano Competition in
Bolzano.
In 2014, Albanese has made his debut on Deutsche Grammophon label
with "Fantasia", a concept album featuring Beethoven's Sonata quasi una
Fantasia Op. 27 No. 2, Schubert's Wanderer Fantasy Op. 15
and Schumann's Fantasy Op. 17.
