Cédric Tiberghien is a French pianist who has established a truly international career. He has been particularly applauded for his versatility, as demonstrated by his wide-ranging repertoire, interesting programming, an openness to explore innovative concert formats and his dynamic chamber-music partnerships.

Recent debuts include performances with the Berliner Philharmoniker, San Francisco Symphony and NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchestra. Cédric has recently performed with the Boston Symphony, Cleveland, Czech Philharmonic, London Symphony and Tokyo Philharmonic orchestras, the Orchestre national de France, and at the BBC Proms with Les Siècles; and with conductors Karina Canellakis, Nicholas Collon, Stéphane Denève, Edward Gardner, Enrique Mazzola, Ludovic Morlot, Matthias Pintscher, François-Xavier Roth and Simone Young.

Cédric is a dedicated chamber musician, with regular partners including violinist Alina Ibragimova, violist Antoine Tamestit and baritone Stéphane Degout. He and Alina first met as members of the BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artists scheme in 2005, and they have since performed together at major venues throughout Europe and North America, and have undertaken extensive tours to Australia and Asia. Their discography includes complete cycles of music by Schubert, Beethoven, Szymanowski and Ravel, and their recent survey of the Mozart sonatas was awarded the Preis der deutschen Schallplattenkritik.

Cédric recently presented a major focus on the music of Bartók, which culminated in a three-volume exploration of the composer’s solo piano works, released on Hyperion Records to huge critical acclaim. Cédric’s solo discography also includes music by Chopin, Liszt and Szymanowksi, Franck’s Variations symphoniques and Les Djinns, and Brahms’s Piano Concerto No 1 in D minor. He has been awarded five Diapasons d’Or for his solo and duo recordings on Hyperion.
