Korean pianist Tomoki Park was born in Yokohama, Japan, and moved to England at age 11. He has performed worldwide in venues including Wigmore Hall, Elbphilharmonie, Tokyo Suntory Hall, and Philharmonie Berlin. He studied at the Bard Conservatory in New York with Peter Serkin, and later at the Lake Como Piano Academy. Described by his mentor Sir András Schiff as “a brilliant mind, intellectual in the best sense but full of emotions,” his performances have been described as “standout” (Boston Globe) and “among the highlights…and sensitively played” (New York Times). At Sir András Schiff’s invitation, Tomoki gave solo recitals across Europe as part of the mentorship program Building Bridges and commissioned a new work by American composer Katherine Balch. He is also supported as an artist on the Classeek Ambassador roster. Tomoki has premiered over 50 new works, collaborating with composers such as Rebecca Saunders, Heinz Holliger, George Benjamin, and Dai Fujikura, whose new piano piece he will premiere at the Gstaad Menuhin Festival next summer. He is currently on faculty at the Paris Institute of Critical Thinking, through which he is publishing a biography of Peter Serkin.
