BIOGRAPHY

ANTON GERZENBERG

Since winning first prize at the Concours Géza Anda in Zurich in 2021 and being named “Great Talent” at the Vienna Konzerthaus in 2022-24, pianist Anton Gerzenberg, born in 1996, has made a name for himself in the music world: with a wide-ranging repertoire from Sweelinck to Lachenmann, he captivates audiences with his virtuoso and sensitive playing in sophisticated programs. In June 2024 he was awarded the Martha Argerich Steinway Prize.

In addition to continuing his collaboration at the Wiener Konzerthaus, Anton Gerzenberg will be invited to the Konzerthaus Berlin, the Musikverein Vienna, the Grazer Musikverein, the Nikolaisaal Potsdam, Le Piano Symphonique Lucerne and the Ruhr Piano Festival in the 2024/25 season. In spring 2025, an extensive Asian tour will take him to Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore and China together with Lilya Zilberstein.

„Gerzenberg was in a league of his own. He seemed in total control, armed with uncommon self-assuredness for a pianist of his age. … He looks every bit a potential leading light of his generation.“

James Imam, Musical America Worldwide

“The Totentanz … sounded epic, heroically powerful, courageous and at the same time modest, testifying to the pianist’s fine aesthetic taste. Gerzenberg’s organic virtuosity, composure and stage confidence impressed from the first notes.”

Svetlana Melentyeva, Rossyiskaya Gazeta

„Suddenly there was a pianist on the stage, who withdrew behind the music, who acted in such a way that the musical text was recognized in its delicacy. … He showed an immense musicality, which convinced in every nuance.“

Carsten Dürer, Piano News
