‘Colli takes care to seduce before sweeping the listener off his or her feet.’
THE TIMES

‘The new Michelangeli! The new Maurizio Pollini! Colli is completely different from his great predecessors,[but] the comparison is appropriate because he really is extraordinary.’

The young Italian Federico Colli, winner of the prestigious Leeds International Piano Competition in 2012, is a rising star who has been likened to some of the piano greats of the 20th century.

The clean lines of the Bach, the passion of Chopin and drama of Beethoven are all served by Colli’s extraordinary musicianship from ‘breath-taking stillness to ferocious turbulence’ (THE GUARDIAN).
