Laureate of numerous international competitions, notably the second prize-winner at the 2013 Queen Elisabeth International Piano Competition at the age of twenty and the youngest prize-winner of the Bonn International Beethoven Competition, Rémi Geniet is fast establishing himself as one of the most prominent pianists of his generation. In 2015 he became a prize-winner of the Young Concert Artists in New York and in 2020 was awarded a career grant by the prestigious New York Salon de Virtuosi.

Rémi Geniet’s chamber music partners count as some of the leading artists of their generation – Alexandra Soumm, Aurélien Pascal, Raphaël Sévère and Daniel Lozakovitj with whom he performed at the Salle Molière in Lyon and at the Festival de Pâques in Aix-en-Provence – as well as established artists such as Augustin Dumay.

Having studied at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Paris with Brigitte Engerer and at the École Normale de Musique Alfred Cortot in the class of Rena Shereshevskaya, Rémi worked with Evgeni Koroliov at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater in Hamburg. He also studied orchestral conducting with George Pehlivanian.

Both his debut all-Bach CD, which received a “Diapason D’OR of the Year” in 2015, and his second release of four Beethoven sonatas, also on the Mirare label, were unanimously praised by the critics.
