Rémi Geniet | Photo: Jean-Baptiste MillotPianist Rémi Geniet – October 22, 2023 LiveEvents October 17, 2023 464 The Ladies’ Morning Musical Club presents Rémi Geniet “Instrumentally intimidating, intellectually astonishing, and musically overwhelming,” proclaimed Alain Lompech of Diapason about the young French pianist Rémi Geniet. Winner at numerous international competitions, notably second prize-winner at the 2013 Queen Elisabeth International Piano Competition at the age of twenty and the youngest prize-winner of the Bonn International Beethoven Competition, Geniet has established himself as one of the most prominent pianists of his generation, performing regularly across Europe, Asia and North America, including at the Montreal Bach Festival. Among the many prestigious international festivals that invite him are Verbier, Colmar, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, and La Folle Journée in Japan. Both his debut all-Bach CD, which received a Diapason d’Or of the Year in 2015, and his second release of four Beethoven sonatas, both on the Mirare label, have been unanimously praised by the critics. In 2011 he won first prize at the Prix du Piano Interlaken Classics in Bern and is a prize winner at many other competitions, including the International Horowitz Competition in Kyiv, where he won the Special Vladimir Horowitz Interpretation Prize.
