A superb musician has spoken.
–Le Devoir
Spanish-Dutch pianist, Albert Cano Smit has been enchanting audiences and winning international competitions since age 14. Smit won First Prize in the Young Concert Artists International Auditions in 2019 and the Naumburg Foundation First Prize in 2017. His Fondation Louis Vuitton recital in early 2019 at the Frank Gehry–designed “glass cloud” in Paris was broadcast live globally. In October 2019, Smit made his Carnegie Hall debut with the world premiere of Stephen Hough’s Partita for Piano, commissioned for him by the Naumburg Foundation. He has been praised for his “dazzling technical and emotional dexterity” (DNA).
