In 2014, at the age of 22, Daniel Lebhardt won 1st Prize at the Young Concert Artists auditions in Paris and New York. Debuts followed at the Kennedy Center in Washington DC, Merkin Concert Hall in New York and Palais Lichtenau in Potsdam and this season sees him at the Wigmore Hall.
Daniel’s delightful programme of dance and folk melodies reflects his Hungarian birth with the inclusion of works by two illustrious compatriots, Liszt and Bartok.

On his performance of Liszt’s Sonata in B minor:
'Just playing it commandingly, as Mr. Lebhardt did, is difficult enough. He brought narrative sweep and youthful abandon to the piece, along with power, poetry and formidable technique.'
