Paolo Giacometti

Based on the provided releases and my knowledge base, Paolo Giacometti is a highly respected Dutch classical pianist, particularly celebrated for his interpretations of 19th-century Romantic repertoire, especially Robert Schumann, and for his work in chamber music.

He's known for the warmth, clarity, and poetic sensitivity he brings to performances, whether as a soloist or collaborator. Giacometti often performs on period instruments (fortepianos) as well as modern pianos, bringing historical understanding to the music. Trained in Amsterdam, he has enjoyed a significant international career, performing worldwide and recording extensively for labels like Channel Classics. Alongside his performing career, Giacometti is also dedicated to teaching, holding a professorship at the Prince Claus Conservatoire in Groningen. His artistry consistently finds deep connections within the emotional world of composers like Schumann, as evidenced by his frequent recordings of that composer's works.
