About Yukine Kuroki
Music Network presents the incredibly gifted pianist Yukine Kuroki in March. She has conquered the hearts of many in recent years, winning both the Liszt Utrecht Competition and Dublin International Piano Competition in 2022, as well as being awarded third prize at the prestigious Rubinstein Competition in 2023. Her mastery of the instrument prompted leading Canadian pianist Janina Fialkowska to describe Kuroki as “a true poet at the piano, who can make you cry with a single note”.
Since then Yukine has been performing all over the world, including sold-out debuts with Netherlands Radio Philharmonic Orchestra, Tokyo New City Orchestra, Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra, Tokyo City Philharmonic Orchestra, Kanagawa Philharmonic Orchestra and Lithuanian National Symphony Orchestra.
The 2024/2025 season sees Yukine make debuts at Carnegie Hall, Wigmore Hall, Germany’s Munich Gasteig and Villa Wahnfried, Bayreuth, Kuhmo Hall in South Korea and at Switzerland’s Verbier Festival. Yukine will also make a triumphant return to the National Concert Hall, Dublin as soloist with the National Symphony Orchestra, and perform a solo recital at Concertgebouw, Amsterdam.
Her recordings Christmas with Yukine and Live at Liszt Utrecht can be found on Spotify, Apple Music, Tidal and other streaming platforms. Yukine has recently completed a master’s programme at Showa Graduate School of Music under Fumiko Eguchi.
