THE ARTIST

Paul Ji

A pianist plays with elegance while maintaining sophisticated restraint.

At regular intervals, new talents emerge, making a splash in the vibrant world of classical music. With his piano, Paul Ji is one of them.

His achievements and numerous awards, most of which were won unanimously by the jury, speak for him at just 20 years old. Notably, he is a seven-time laureate of the Steinway International Competition. In 2019, he won ‘Prodiges’ on France 2, a prize presented to him by pianist Lang Lang. He had already performed Chopin on this show, a fond memory for him as it marked his first time playing with an orchestra, though he primarily sees himself as a solo concert pianist. This victory allowed him to record his first album with Warner Classics, featuring Chopin, of course, as well as Tchaikovsky, Debussy, and Liszt. Shortly after, he recorded the piece ‘Dans la nuit’ with crossover superstar Sarah Brightman, from her album ‘France’… once again, Chopin.
