Mariam Batsashvili, born in Georgia, has emerged as one of the most distinctive pianists of her generation. Heralded for her profound musical intelligence and remarkable technical mastery, Batsashvili first captured international attention by winning the prestigious Franz Liszt Piano Competition in Utrecht in 2014, marking her as the first female laureate to secure this title. This victory catapulted her onto the global stage, fostering a burgeoning career that spans solo recitals, chamber music performances, and appearances with leading orchestras around the world.

Batsashvili's rich discography showcases a penchant for both the grand romantic repertoire and the nuanced transcription works that bridge composers across eras. Her recent releases, such as "Rossini: Petit caprice (Style Offenbach)," "Chopin: Souvenir de Paganini," and a compilation of "Romantic Piano Masters," reveal an artist deeply engaged with the expressive potential of the piano. Whether through the intricate weavings of Chopin & Liszt: Piano Works or the introspective "Lullabies" and early transcriptions that pay homage to the lineage of great composers and virtuosi, Batsashvili's recordings invite listeners into a world where historical reverence and contemporary insight blend seamlessly. Her dedication to exploring both the technical challenges and emotional landscapes of piano music has not only won her critical acclaim but has also endeared her to a growing legion of listeners eager to follow her evolving artistic journey.
