The Gen Z Pianist

Some of the photos in his Instagram profile suggest that Giorgi Gigashvili is more likely to be found in a Berlin techno club than on a classical concert platform. For the Georgian pianist, born in 2000, these worlds are not so contradictory – one moment he is playing sonatas by Scarlatti, the next he is singing and accompanying folk songs from his homeland, and shortly afterwards he can be found experimenting with electronic music. And with considerable success: Gigashvili’s young career has been shaped by prizes at major piano competitions, a place among the most influential »30 under 30« in Georgia’s Forbes magazine and a nomination as »Rising Star« by the European Concert Hall Organisation.
