BRIEF INTRODUCTION

Piano: Gil Shohat
Forbes magazine, together with all three of Israel’s major newspapers (Yedioth Aharonoth, Ma’ariv and Ha’aretz) have declared Shohat to be “The most important and influential personality in classical music in Israel.” In June 2009, the French government named him a Knight in the prestigious Order of Arts and Letters.
Gil Shohat is the composer of nine large-scale symphonies, ten concertos for various instruments, three operas, various oratorios, cantatas, solo vocal pieces, and dozens of chamber and piano pieces, as well as the performer of more than 80 concerts a year worldwide, both as a conductor and pianist.
As a pianist, Shohat performs more than 40 concerts a year and has given recitals and solo performances with orchestras in 25 nations, including most European capitals, the Far East, India, and the Americas. In Israel, he performed his first recital at age 12; by age 16 Shohat had performed as a soloist with every major national orchestra, including the Israel Philharmonic. Along with a selection of his peers, Shohat established a group of young piano virtuosi who have undertaken a series of performance "marathons". These have included the complete piano repertoire of Chopin (2002-2004), the complete piano repertoire of Schumann (2004-2006), the complete Scriabin sonatas (2004), major piano works by Rachmaninoff (2006), and the complete partitas by Bach (2007). Shohat has recorded 10 CDs as a pianist with Israel's Helicon and NMC labels.
