Christina Petrowska Quilico

about

When it comes to piano concerti, few artists have played as wide a range to such great acclaim as Christina Petrowska Quilico. Her live performances run the gamut from the Bach D minor to such warhorses as Beethoven's "Emperor", the Grieg and Chopin E minor, and to the 20th century established masterworks- including the Bartok First, Strauss "burleske", the three Prokofieff and Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue". Petrowska Quilico was only 10 in her orchestral debut, playing the Haydn D major Concerto with Toronto's Conservatory Orchestra. At 15 in New York, as a competition co-winner-with Murray Perahia- she played Moazart's K 488 in A major with orchestra. The New York Times hailed her as a "promethean talent", and later as "an extraordinary talent with phenomenal ability...dazzling virtuosity", playing "to perfection". Included in her 23 (and counting) recordings of classical, romantic and new music are a Juno-nominated performance with the Winnipeg Symphony and a Centrediscs CD "Eclipse" which debuted on the Space Shuttle Atlantis. A Juilliard graduate she has played in major halls such as Carnegie Hall, Alice Tully Hall, Lincoln Centre and in centres throughout Europe, Canada, the Middle East and Taiwan.
