Roman Rabinovich

Praised by The New York Times for his “uncommon sensitivity and feeling,” pianist Roman Rabinovich won the 12th Arthur Rubinstein International Piano Master Competition in 2008. He has since performed at leading venues across Europe and North America, including Wigmore Hall, Carnegie Hall, Leipzig’s Gewandhaus, and Washington, D.C.’s Kennedy Center. He has appeared with top orchestras and conductors and earned acclaim for a repertoire spanning Bach to Lutosławski, especially his interpretations of Haydn. Highlights of the 2024–25 season include a three-recital series at Wigmore Hall, performances at the Lammermuir and Liszt Academy Chamber Music Festivals, a concerto debut with the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra, and recitals in Israel. He will also perform JS Bach’s Goldberg Variations in London, Vienna, and on Hornby Island. Described as “a true polymath, in the Renaissance sense of the word” (Seen & Heard International), Rabinovich is also a composer and visual artist. His Haydn recordings on First Hand Records have been widely praised. Born in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, Rabinovich immigrated to Israel and debuted with the Israel Philharmonic under Zubin Mehta at age 10. He studied at the Curtis Institute and earned his master’s at Juilliard. He was one of the first pianists in Sir András Schiff’s “Building Bridges” series. Rabinovich co-directs ChamberFest Cleveland and ChamberFest West with his wife, violinist Diana Cohen.

‘. . . the elegance and liveliness of Rabinovich’s keyboard style are, indeed, a joy to listen to, and his unfailing musicality and inventiveness allows him to penetrate to the expressive heart of Haydn’s world.’ BBC Magazine
