Classical pianist
Jeremy Denk (born May 16, 1970 in Durham, North Carolina ) is an American classical pianist.
Early life [ edit ]
Denk did not come from a musical family. After several years in New Jersey, his family settled in Las Cruces, New Mexico , where he grew up. He attended Oberlin College and did graduate work at Indiana University where he studied with György Sebők .[1]
Denk has been awarded a MacArthur Fellowship [2] won the Avery Fisher Prize and Musical America ' s Instrumentalist of the Year award,[3] and has been elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences .[4]
Denk has performed throughout the US and Europe in recital and with major symphony orchestras and has toured with Academy of St Martin in the Fields .[5] [6]
Denk's releases from Nonesuch Records include the opera The Classical Style with music by Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven. He joined his long-time musical partners, Joshua Bell and Steven Isserlis , in a recording of Brahms' Trio in B-major .[7] His previous disc of the Goldberg Variations reached number one on Billboard ' s Classical Chart .[8]
In 2014, Denk served as music director of the Ojai Music Festival , for which, besides performing and curating, he wrote the libretto for a comic opera, The Classical Style , with music by Steven Stucky .[9] The opera was later presented by Carnegie Hall and the Aspen Festival . Denk is known for his original and insightful writing on music, which Alex Ross praises for its "arresting sensitivity and wit."[This quote needs a citation ] His writing has appeared in The New Yorker , The New Republic , The Guardian , and on the front page of The New York Times Book Review .[10] [11] One of his New Yorker contributions, "Every Good Boy Does Fine" (cf. EGBDF ), forms the basis of a book published by Random House in the US, and Macmillan in the UK.[12] Recounting his experiences of touring, performing, and practicing, his blog, Think Denk, was recently selected for inclusion in the Library of Congress web archives.[5] [13]
In 2012, Denk made his Nonesuch debut with a pairing of masterpieces old and new: Beethoven's final Piano Sonata No. 32, Op. 111 , and Ligeti 's Études .[14] The album was named one of the best of 2012 by The New Yorker , NPR , and The Washington Post , and Denk's account of the Beethoven sonata was selected by BBC Radio 3 's Building a Library as the best available version recorded on modern piano. Denk has a long-standing attachment to the music of American visionary Charles Ives , and his recording of Ives's two piano sonatas featured in many "best of the year" lists.
Denk graduated from Oberlin College , Indiana University , and the Juilliard School . He lives in New York City.[15]
In 2019, Denk released an album entitled c.1300–c.2000 , of piano versions of pieces by composers from circa the years 1300 to 2000. The album was released on Nonesuch Records.[16] He discussed the work on BBC Radio 4 's Front Row in March 2019.[17]
Denk made his Edinburgh International Festival debut in August 2019 with a programme of piano works by Bach , Ligeti , Liszt , Berg and Schumann .[18]
