about
Micah redefines what it means to be a virtuoso pianist by applying the sensibility of a 21st century pop artist. Not only is Micah inspired by the giants of romantic music, Chopin, Rachmaninoff and Liszt, he also looks to the great pop divas, Lady Gaga, Madonna and Donna Summer. This heady mix creates an unforgettable sound that’s designed to move you from the serene to the dance floor. By merging his unparalleled piano skills, his talents as a composer and vocalist with his flair for fashion and out-and-proud sensibility Micah has earned his place as part of the pop scene. Born in Charleston, South Carolina, Micah trained at the Curtis Institute of Music and Juilliard - America’s two top training grounds for classical musicians. Micah has performed as soloist with major orchestras around the world, including the Cleveland Orchestra, Philadelphia Orchestra, Orquestra Filarmónica de Montevideo and the Charleston Symphony Orchestra. Micah is a winner of the Gilmore Young Artist Award, an award given biannually to the two most promising young pianists in the US. Micah is a laureate of the Ettlingen International Competition for Young Pianists, Hilton Head International Competition, and Thomas and Evon Cooper International Piano Competition.
