Piano Recital with Natalia Kazaryan
Add to your calendarTime 6.30 pmWhere Palazzo Tornabuoni, Club Lounge
Hailed by the New York Sun for “her prodigious ability” who
“immediately established an atmosphere of strength and
confidence,” Natalia Kazaryan commenced her studies of the piano
at the age of six and performed with the Tbilisi State Chamber
Orchestra as a soloist at seven. While studying at the preparatory
division of the Tbilisi Music Conservatory with Alla Nakashidze,
she gave concerts throughout Europe. Upon her arrival in the
United States, Natalia began working with Logan Skelton of
the University of Michigan and went on to take bachelors and
masters’ degrees from the Juilliard School in New York, where
she studied under Jerome Lowenthal and Matti Raekallio. Natalia
took top prizes in numerous international competitions, including
the Eastman Young Artists International Piano Competition, the
Kosciuszko Foundation Chopin Competition, and the Second New
York Piano Competition, which has provided her with concert
management.
During her studies, she became the first Juilliard student to
participate in the Carla Bruni-Sarkozy exchange with the Paris
Conservatoire. In Paris, she studied piano with Michel Béroff and
chamber music with Valérie Aimard. An active chamber musician,
she took part in the Ryoichi Sasakawa Young Leaders Fellowship,
dedicated to collaboration between The Juilliard School, the Paris
Conservatoire, and the Universität für Musik und darstellende
Kunst Wien. Natalia then won both a Fulbright Grant and Harriett
Hale Woolley Scholarship to Paris, France. There she continued
her studies under Béroff with a focus on Olivier Messiaen’s Vingt
Regards sur l’enfant Jésus.
Since her move to France, Natalia has been enjoying an active
performing career across Europe. This season, her performances
included such venues as Schloss Mirabell in Salzburg, the Théatre
des Variétés in Monaco, and the Musée Carnavalet and Salle
Cortot in Paris. She also participated in the IMS Prussia Cove
Master Classes in Cornwall, England. In 2012, she was the first
prize winner of Concours FLAME in Paris and the second prize
winner of Concours international de piano d’Ile de France.
Natalia studies at the Escuela Superior de Música Reina Sofia
under the guidance of Dimitri Bashkirov. At the end of the 2014
academic year, she received from the hands of Queen Sofia of
Spain, the “Sobresaliente” Award, for Outstanding work and
Excellence.
