Tomasz Ritter

**Tomasz Ritter** is a Polish classical pianist celebrated for his dynamic interpretations of Romantic and early 20th-century repertoire. Born in 1994, he gained international recognition after winning the inaugural International Chopin Competition on Period Instruments in 2018, where his performances on historical pianos showcased his deep connection to the expressive nuances of composers like Chopin and Beethoven. A graduate of the Fryderyk Chopin University of Music in Warsaw, Ritter balances technical brilliance with a poetic touch, earning praise for reviving lesser-known works while honoring classical traditions.

His recent releases, including explorations of Beethoven’s sonatas, Chopin’s ballades, and pieces by Alexandre Tansman, highlight his versatility and curiosity. Whether breathing life into Tansman’s jazzy trio compositions or navigating the emotional depths of Beethoven’s *Op. 109*, Ritter’s playing blends scholarly precision with heartfelt storytelling. A rising star in the classical world, he continues to bridge historical authenticity with fresh, engaging performances.
