Stephen Gosling

Stephen Gosling is a versatile American pianist celebrated for his dynamic interpretations of contemporary classical music. Known for championing 20th and 21st-century works, he’s collaborated with luminaries like Morton Feldman and Charles Wuorinen, and his recent releases—like *Julius Eastman: Femenine* and multiple volumes of Phillip Ramey’s piano music—showcase his knack for balancing rhythmic intensity with lyrical sensitivity. A regular in New York’s new-music scene, Gosling has performed with ensembles like the New York New Music Ensemble and frequently partners with living composers to expand the piano repertoire.

When he’s not tackling avant-garde pieces or minimalist epics (see his recording of Wolff’s *Tracer*), Gosling curates projects like the *Powerhouse Pianists* series, which spotlights bold keyboard voices. His recent albums, including *Extreme Measures* and *Cycles*, reflect his curiosity for music that challenges conventions—always delivered with technical precision and a touch of adventurous flair.
