She can be heard on Vox Classics, Koch International and other labels.

While still a teenager, she earned a Bachelor of Science and Diploma in Piano with two special awards and made her New York Philharmonic, Town Hall and Chicago recital debuts. She also gave a recital at Carnegie Hall about which Arthur Rubinstein wrote a glowing account in his memories My Many Years. As a young pianist Dubravka Tomšič won many awards and international competitions and now serves as juror for several major piano international competitions including Bolzano, the Van Cliburn, Leeds, Beethoven, Clara Haskil, Bach, Schumann, Santander, AXA Dublin, the International Piano-e-competition in Minneapolis and Cleveland. Ms. Tomšič gives master classes in Europe and in the USA and is Emeritus Professor at the Ljubljana University Academy of Music.

Massimo Gon

Massimo Gon started playing the piano when he was 5 years old.

He studied at the Music Academy “Giuseppe Tartini” in Trieste with Luciano Gante. After the diploma, for which he was awarded a special mention, he studied with Vincenzo Vitale in Naples for a short period and subsequently attended Nikita Magaloff’s summer courses in Geneva.

Following a series of highly praised performances in national (Premio Venezia, Cata Monti di Trieste per la musica moderna e contemporanea, La Spezia, Osimo) and international competitions (Stresa e “Viotti” di Vercelli), he was invited to perform in some of the most important concert venues in Italy (Teatro alla Scala, Teatro Regio di Torino, La Fenice, Filarmonica Romana, Teatri Verdi di Trieste, Teatro Massimo di Palermo), in several European capitals (Moscow, St. Petersburg, Budapest, Ljubjana, Brussels), in the United States and in South America.

He participated to several international festivals (Mozart Festival, Serate musicali di Stresa, Mittelfest di Cividale, Estate Fiesolana, Asolo Musica, Alghero).

He has recorded for the Brussels-based label Empire Master Sound and has recently published a CD for Velut Luna with the integral cycle of Liszt’s 12 Grand Etudes.

He has a predilection for the romantic and twentieth century repertoires with a particular eye to contemporary music, having on several occasions presented compositions never previously performed.

He is a teacher at the Music Academy “Giuseppe Tartini” of Trieste and is regularly invited to give Master Classes (Cajkovskij Music Academy of Moscow and the Liszt Academy of  Budapest).

He has been a member of the jury in several important music competitions.

Daniel Rivera
Argentina

Daniel Rivera

He made his Italian debut in 70s thanks to some very important international competitions he was awarded in, like the “Ferruccio Busoni”, the “Dino Ciani”, the “Ettore Pozzoli” the “Rina Sala Gallo”, the “Cata Monti”, the “Beethoven” in Wien, the “Reine Elisabeth” in Bruxelles, the “Liszt-Bartok” in Budapest and the “Paloma O’Shea” in Santander, achieving three absolute first prizes, two second prizes and several other special mentions.

Afterwards he started a prestigious piano concert career, performing in the most important theatres worldwide – among them the Sala Philarmonia in Kiev, the Queen Elizabeth Hall in London, the Park Musik Hall in Dallas, the Musikverein in Wien, the Teatro Colòn in Buenos Aires.

Nowadays Daniel Rivera is widely renowned and highly esteemed worldwide within the piano concert landscape, considered a pioneer of piano challenges and a performer of programs and works very rarely played; this interest hit the highest spots in 2002, when he presented – in a world premiere performance – his transcription of the “Rite of Spring” by Stravinsky confirming once again his extraordinary technique and interpretative skills.

This impressive and worldwide unique transcription captured the interest of Martha Argerich, who personally invited Rivera to the “Progetto Martha Argerich” in Lugano, where he performed in June 2009. Since that time, the link with the legendary Argentinian pianist turned into an intense artistic cooperation. With Martha Argerich, Daniel Rivera performed in piano duo (two pianos and piano 4 hands) at the Teatro Ponchielli in Cremona, at the Teatro Lirico in Cagliari, at the Politeama Theatre in Catanzaro, at the Teatro Nuovo Giovanni di Udine, at the Piano Festival of Pietrasanta and Ascoli Piceno, up the legendary concerts on 19th and 20th October 2012, at the Teatro El Circulo of Rosario (Argentina) – four CDs have been released in June 2014, edited and distributed by IRCO in Buenos Aires – and for the inauguration of the Petrarca Theatre in Arezzo on December 2015, and the prestigious “Greek Theater” of Taormina (Sicily) in August 2019.

Still for IRCO Cosentino in Buenos Aires he recorded two CDs with Franz Liszt Opera transcriptions and paraphrases, as well as the 12 Trascendental Studies. Jury member within some relevant international piano competitions, Daniel Rivera is extremely keen of teaching: besides his faculty chair at the “Istituto di Alta Cultura Musicale Pietro Mascagni” in Livorno, at “Accademia Strata” in Pisa, at the “Academy of the Arts” in Sarzana and at the “Musica Ritrovata” Academy in Livorno, he is frequently invited to hold several high piano courses and master classes in Italy and abroad, such as at UNR, University of Rosario (Argentina) Conservatory of Music in Udine, Parma, La Spezia, Bari, Monopoli, Trieste, Cosenza, the Lemmeintitut in Leuven, Belgium, the “Summer Musical Holidays” in Urbino, the International Festival “Duchi d’Acquaviva” in Atri, “Via Francigena” International Arts Festival in Lucca, and the Livorno Music Festival.

Born in 1952 in Rosario (Argentina). Thanks to the scholarship gained by winning the first prize “Vincenzo Scaramuzza” organized by the “National Fund for Arts” and the “Argentinian Mozarteum” in 1973 he moved to Italy where – under the direction of M°Alessandro Specchi – he achieved the Italian Diploma at the Cherubini Conservatory of Music in Florence with 10/10 cum laude grade and the honor mention. Then he completed his studies with M°Alessandro Specchi and Maria Tipo in Florence and with Ludwig Hoffman in Munich.

🎞🎶❤️Goldberg Serpentine Love ha vinto il 🎞🎶❤️Goldberg Serpentine Love ha vinto il I° Premio - Città di Offida al Piceno Cinema Festival🎞🎶❤️
Goldberg Serpentine Love è un film senza dialoghi dove la musica, con l’opera di Bach, commenta le immagini, la giuria ha premiato questo film per l’uso molto complesso e ben articolato del piano visivo capace di far immergere lo spettatore nei diversi momenti diegetici della storia senza perdere il filo conduttore del plot, lasciando allo spettatore la libertà dell’interpretazione delle immagini che intanto scorrono davanti ai suoi occhi. L’altro aspetto molto apprezzato dalla giuria è l’uso continuo e senza interruzioni delle celeberrime Variazioni di Bach, dove l’ascoltatore è trascinato in un vortice sonoro di assoluta bellezza che appare di volta in volta sempre identico a se stesso e allo stesso tempo mutevole.

Il plot racconta del pianista, Tymoteusz Bies (vincitore del Concorso Piano FVG) che sta facendo le prove negli spazi della fabbrica Fazioli per prepararsi all’accompagnamento di un film dei fratelli Lumiere, Danse Serpentine. Una giovane ragazza a scuola di danza sta guardando sul suo telefonino lo stesso film. Forse si stanno innamorando… La scena si sposta in un cinema e una sorta di cortocircuito “d’amore” spingerà il “Danseuse Serpentine” fuori dallo schermo a fare da Cupido, e forse farà innamorare i due protagonisti conducendoli attraverso i luoghi più belli e suggestivi di Sacile.
