Rinaldo Zhok

**Rinaldo Zhok** is an Italian classical pianist and musicologist celebrated for his dynamic collaborations and dedication to reviving lesser-known works. Partnering frequently with musicians like Duo Praxedis (alongside his sister, Praxedis Hug-Rütti), Zhok specializes in piano four-hand and two-piano repertoire, breathing fresh life into composers ranging from Beethoven and Liszt to Spanish icons like Francisco Asenjo Barbieri and Jesús García Leoz. His projects, such as *Boundless: Beethoven Complete Works for Piano Four Hands* and *Liszt-Verdi: Complete Paraphrases and Free Transcriptions*, showcase his technical precision and flair for dramatic interpretation.

Zhok also champions Spanish musical heritage, as heard in releases like *Canciones para una Reina* and *Otro Barbieri*, blending scholarly rigor with accessible performances. Whether unearthing film music pioneers or reimagining Dvorák’s folk-inspired pieces (*From the Bohemian Forest & Dumky*), his work bridges historical depth with modern storytelling, making classical traditions feel vibrant and relatable.
