Pedro Carboné
Pedro Carboné has been hailed as "one of the best Spanish pianists of our time," and his interpretation of Albéniz' Iberia has been praised as "magnificent" (ABC, Madrid). He recorded Oscar Esplá's piano works to great acclaim in Fanfare and the American Record Guide and performed Espla's concerto Sonata del Sur with the Brandenburgisches Staatsorchester Frankfurt and the George Enescu Philharmonic of Bucharest, marking the first time this music was heard outside of Spain in fifty years.Carboné recorded the complete Chopin Etudes at the age of nineteen for RCA, labeled "among the best versions ever made" by Harmonie-Opéra. The Washington Post called him "a major artist" after his Kennedy Center debut. He has since performed widely in the United States and has frequently been featured in live performance on National Public Radio. In New York City he has performed as soloist with the Brooklyn Philharmonic, the American Composers Orchestra, and the Perspectives Ensemble.
