Winner of the 2024 Leeds International Piano Competition, Canadian pianist Jaeden Izik-Dzurko has been celebrated by audiences, critics and composers alike for his communicative power, refined technical command and artistic maturity. Also in 2024, Jaeden became the first Canadian Grand Prize Laureate in the piano edition of the Concours musical international de Montréal.
A thoughtful interpreter of Canadian composers’ works, he received the André-Bachand Prize for the best performance of an imposed Canadian work at the Concours Musical International de Montréal and has recorded Ernst Schneider’s The Romantic Piano Concerto with the Okanagan Symphony Orchestra (Canadian Soundscapes). More recently, he gave the world premiere of Somnis Radiants (Radiant Dreams, 2022) by Spanish composer Elisenda Fábregas at the Klavier-Festival Ruhr.
Born in Salmon Arm, British Columbia, Jaeden earned his Bachelor of Music at The Juilliard School under Yoheved Kaplinsky and his Master of Music at the University of British Columbia with Corey Hamm. He is also a former student of Ian Parker. Currently, he studies with Jacob Leuschner at the Hochschule für Musik Detmold and Benedetto Lupo at the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia.
His concert program at the Isabel will include works by Medtner, Schubert and Schumann.
