The pianist Petras Geniušas is one of Lithuania’s most versatile and adventurous performers. His musical interests go far beyond his background as a concert pianist, ranging from English virginalists to avant-garde, jazz and electronic dance beats, which influence the way he interprets classical music. Winning the top awards at leading piano competitions in Zaragoza (1989), Oberlin (1991), Cincinnati (1991) and Palm Beach (1992) has confirmed his reputation as one of the most gifted and accomplished pianists of his generation. Geniušas has played in over 20 countries, and has performed in the world’s main concert venues.
