Jan Schulmeister is a remarkably talented young Czech pianist born in 2006, known for his extraordinary technical skill and deep musical sensitivity. He comes from a distinguished musical family with a long tradition, and his early start in music saw him winning numerous international piano competitions across Europe and the US. Since beginning piano lessons at age five and competing from seven, Jan has rapidly gained recognition, notably becoming the youngest member of the prestigious Petrof Art Family and releasing a well-received solo debut album in 2025 featuring works by Mussorgsky, Rachmaninoff, and Scriabin.
