Helene Grimaud was born in Aix-en-Provence, France, and by age 13 she was accepted into the Conservatoire National Superieur de Musique in Paris for piano. She has studied under master pianists Gyorgy Sander, Leon Fleisher, and Jorge Bolet. Since her 1998 Orchestre de Paris debut, Grimaud has toured and performed with leading conductors and orchestras, including performances with the Berlin Philharmonic, the Boston Symphony, the Mostly Mozart Festival Orchestra, the New York Philharmonic, and a recent tour with the Russian National Orchestra. She has been featured on several recordings featuring works of Rachmaninoff, Beethoven, Chopin, Gershwin, Liszt, Schumann, Strauss, Ravel, and Brahms. "Intelligence informed passion in Grimaud's playing," wrote critic Octavio Roca of the Miami Herald (2004). Mention AtlantaBuzz.com and receive 25% off!
