Introducing the young prodigy, Gabriele Micheli, recipient of the esteemed Second Prize in the renowned Ciccolini Piano Competition. At just 22 years old, Gabriele’s musical journey has been nothing short of remarkable. Gabriele secured his place at the acclaimed Conservatoria Santa Cecilia in Rome aged 9, and his passion for the piano continued to flourish. Graduating with flying colours in 2017, he further honed his skills, obtaining his Master’s degree from the same prestigious institution in 2020.

Gabriele’s exceptional talent has earned him international acclaim, as he has emerged victorious in numerous global competitions, leaving audiences spellbound with his soulful performances. This album showcases his diverse repertoire, offering a splendid fusion of keyboard masterpieces from the Baroque, Romantic, and 20th-century eras. His profound musical expression and technical finesse can be heard clearly in this excellent recording.

As a token of recognition for these gifted artists and a commitment to fostering emerging talents, Divine Art takes pride in presenting the second album in our “Debut” series, exclusively dedicated to the outstanding Ciccolini Prize Winners. The first in this series “Violetta Fialko: Ciccolini Prizewinner Recital” was released in July 2022.
