Adolfo Barabino
An artist who combines a refined tone and superb technique with profound intellectual and emotional understanding, Adolfo Barabino is building a reputation as one of the finest interpreters of Chopin of his generation. Born in Genoa, he studied under Emilio Bonino. At a very young age he started an intensive concert career performing in several European countries and later throughout the world. He concluded his studies with Kazimierz Morski and Andrej Jasinski, winning the "European Selection Winners & Masters" in Munich and as a result was invited to perform at the Gasteig and at the Chamber Music Festival in Prague. "Rarely can you hear such a beautiful sound, full of nuances," one critic said of Adolfo's musical approach. Others describe him as having "a velvet touch and great virtuosity" and "a great talent with very deep musicality."

Adolfo Barabino has made numerous live recordings, including playing Maurice Ravel's Erard for "Canal 2" in France, for "Radio Classica" in Madrid and in South America where his performances of Chopin's two piano concertos with the Symphonic Orchestras of Venezuela, Lima and Cuba were broadcast by several national television networks. He is currently recording the complete works of Chopin with Claudio Records and after a recent recital at St. John's, Smith Square in London was invited to record the sonatas of Domenico Scarlatti. In Europe, Adolfo has given recitals in numerous capital cities and concerts in collaboration with the Budapest Festival Orchestra, the National RTV Romanian Orchestra and the Orchestra Filarmonica Marchigiana. In April 2011 he travelled to Japan where he gave concerts in Minato Marai Concert Hall, Yokohama, and in Aoi Concert Hall, Shizuoka.

Adolfo lives in England where he recently made his debut with the London Philharmonic Orchestra and regularly plays in major concert halls as Wigmore Hall and St John Smith's Square. In the UK he recently gave recitals in Leeds Castle and Hever Castle. Adolfo Barabino has held masterclasses throughout the world and has given many lectures on the approach to the keyboard and on "Sound as a tool of communication."
