Håkon Skogstad (b. 1989) is a Norwegian award-winning pianist and composer. He holds degrees in classical performance from the Norwegian Academy of Music (Oslo) and the Manhattan School of Music (New York), as well as a PhD in Artistic Research from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (Trondheim). He has performed across Norway, the United States, Argentina, Germany, Austria, Spain, and Sweden, and has composed large-scale commissioned works performed by leading Norwegian orchestras.

Between 2008 and 2024, Skogstad released six recordings inspired by Argentine tango, including his acclaimed “tango trilogy.” The second album of the trilogy, Visions of Tango — featuring violinist Atle Sponberg and the Trondheim Soloists — was awarded the Norwegian Grammy Award for Best Classical Album in 2021.

Hakon Skogstad’s new album, 24 Variations for Piano, will be released on June 5. We are excited to represent him for this release and look forward to sharing the album with new audiences!
