2026-2027 Highlights
Release of his first album Descarries & cie
A versatile and curious artist, he is the first prizewinner of the 2023 edition of the Auguste Descarries piano competition, and has since been an enthusiastic advocate for the aforementioned canadian composer. His first solo album, Descarries & cie, which is to be released later in 2027 under Leaf Music, is a celebration of canadian piano music from the 20th century.
"The highly talented pianist leading this project has demonstrated a deep and intimate understanding of Descarries’s music, of which he has become one of the most ardent ambassadors."
Hélène Panneton Présidente of the Association pour la diffusion de la musique d’Auguste Descarries
Bourgie Hall Debuts
This concert marks a shift in the Montreal-based pianist’s career. After distinguishing himself at the Berliner Philharmonie with the luminous Scriabin’s fourth Sonata, Antoine discovers a real interest for the Russian romantics and their ardent piano music. He chooses to continue his journey in this imaginative and passionate world with Rachmaninov.
"I am delighted to welcome pianist Antoine Rivard-Landry for his first recital here at Bourgie Hall, in one of our matinées. Antoine is a talented and promising musician, and I had the pleasure to follow his career with interest for the past few years."
Olivier Godin Artistic director of Bourgie Hall
