Marouan Benabdallah, Pianist - Performance November 7, 2008

Named one of the Musicians of the Year 2005 by the Hungarian National Classical Music Radio, the now 24-year-old pianist has performed in many of Budapest's concert halls, including the Great Hall of the Franz Liszt Music Academy.

At only 22, his performance of Rachmaninoff's Third Piano Concerto with the Budapest Symphony Orchestra and Tams Gl brought the cheering audience to its feet.

He is an artist of the highest sensitivity, imagination and focus, combining consummate musicality with great fire and enthusiasm.
