PIANISTS 2009

 

 

 

 

 

Dmitri Levkovich, pianist and composer, has been described by the press as “…one of the truly elect, an artist with technique, a ravishing touch, sensitivity, perspective and intelligence. Seldom do these qualities come together so compellingly.” Donald Rosenberg of the Cleveland Plain Dealer wrote “The competition’s poet appears to be Dmitri Levkovich, who takes music-making into another realm. Everything was beautifully polished, fluent and defined.”
Mr. Levkovich has won top prizes in numerous international competitions, such as Hilton Head (1st prize), Viardo (1st prize, as well as Public prize), Cleveland (Chopin Prize), New Orleans (2nd prize), and has been featured as soloist with many orchestras, including the Louisiana Philharmonic and the National Symphony Orchestra of Ukraine. He has appeared in concert in Austria, France, Canada, Chile, Japan, Israel, Mexico, Poland, United Kingdom, Ukraine and United States. Also distinguished as a composer, Mr. Levkovich received a Degree in Composition from the Curtis Institute of Music and his compositions have been performed by orchestras in the United States and in Europe. He performed a debut recital at Carnegie Hall’s Weill Recital Hall in December of 2006.
