André Laplante

LaPlante_Andre_Photo_2.jpgOver the last decade, Canadian pianist André Laplante has firmly established himself as one of the great romantic virtuosos. Laplante garnered international attention after winning prizes at the Geneva and Sydney International Piano Competitions, then capturing the silver medal at the International Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow. In recent years, Laplante has appeared as orchestral soloist with the Montréal and Chicago Symphony Orchestras, the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra at Carnegie Hall and the Kennedy Center, the Minnesota Orchestra conducted by Sir Neville Mariner, the Toronto Symphony under Andrew Davis, and the Royal Philharmonic under the baton of the late Sir Yehudi Menuhin. Laplante is an active recording artist; his latest release was a 2010 recording of Liszt’s Anneés de Pèlerinage, which won a Felix Award for Best Classical Solo Album of the Year.
