Alexander Schimpf, piano
During the past years, Alexander Schimpf has attracted
attention thanks to an impressive series of important
successes at competitions, fi rst by winning the prize of
the German Music Competition in 2008 (an award
that no pianist had won for 14 years), fi rst prize at
the International Beethoven Competition in Vienna
in 2009 and fi nally fi rst prize in 2011 at the International
Piano Competition in Cleveland/USA as the
fi rst German pianist in the history of the competition
ever to win fi rst prize. Since these major successes,
his career has taken on international dimensions - his
concert calendar for 2011 alone included debut performances
at the Konzerthaus in Vienna, the Konzerthaus
in Berlin as well as at Zankel Hall/Carnegie Hall
in New York.
