Ben Schoeman

Ben Schoeman is a celebrated South African classical pianist known for his dynamic interpretations of Romantic and Classical repertoire. A winner of the prestigious UNISA International Piano Competition and a laureate of the Dublin International Piano Competition, he’s built a reputation for blending technical precision with emotional depth. His recent Beethoven symphony cycle recordings—crafted from Franz Liszt’s piano transcriptions—showcase his flair for reimagining orchestral works on the keys, while albums like *Tchaikovsky: Piano Concerto No. 1* highlight his synergy with orchestras. Based in Pretoria, Schoeman balances performance with academia, teaching at the University of Pretoria and championing South African composers. Whether tackling Liszt’s virtuosic runs or Beethoven’s grandeur, he brings a warm, approachable energy to even the most monumental works.
