“Colli’s recent London performance of Rachmaninov’s Concerto No. 3 suggested a maverick genius.”-International Piano 2018
Of a recent performance of Rachmaninoff’s 3rd piano concerto, International Piano calls Colli “a maverick genius.”
A deeply serious musician and musical thinker, Colli sees his music making as a mission coming from a divine gift. He says, “I want to serve the music, expressing the truth, paying tribute to the beauty.” An exclusive recording artist with Chandos Records, his two recordings have both received rave reviews. Of his Scarlatti, La Scena Musica writes, “Scarlatti hasn’t been this much fun since Horowitz left it off his encores list.”
For Colli, the art of music “is a never-ending creative process, and for this reason it will always be ahead of us, moving infinitely.” It is not surprising that his artistry and pianism have often been compared to masters like Lipatti, Michelangeli and Pollini.
We know that this will be a debut you will remember for a long time to come. Come and be swept off your feet by the playing of this young genius.
