Praised for her “sparkling, crystal-clear passage-work” (Classical Music Daily) and imagination, Hungarian-British pianist Renata Konyicska has been described as a “true international talent” and her playing as a “triumph of musicianship” (Stratford Herald).

She has played solo and chamber music concerts in festivals such as IMS Prussia Cove, Nuits Classiques Megeve, Festival de Piano Classique Biarritz, Encuentro de Musica y Academia de Santander, Internationale Sommerakademie der ISA Reichenau and Liszt Week Esztergom, where she has been a regular artist since its launch.
