About the Artist: Heralded by Steinway and Sons for “making classical music exciting and accessible for the masses,” pianist George Ko has encapsulated audiences worldwide with his classical improvisations on the piano, blending Chopin-like virtuosity with the vast soundscapes of cinema.
He has been presented at Carnegie Hall 9 times and is a repeat keynote performer for TEDx. George is engaged in a 20-city tour and has given over 200 digital concerts in the past two years. His performances have been broadcasted on ABC and featured in music festivals in Italy, Germany, Luxembourg, and China. As a recording artist, his piano compositions have appeared in films at the Tribeca Film Festival, Sundance Film Festival, and Netflix.
George improvises all the songs at his concerts, a practice almost non-existent in the traditional classical world. Each original or cover performed is never the same in a live performance. He often takes daring requests from the audience, including their Spotify favourites, to a custom song inspired by their current mood in real-time.
