Described as an exhilarating performer with faultless technique and fearless command of the piano, Australian-based pianist Konstantin Shamray enjoys performing on an international level with the world’s leading orchestras and concert presenters. In 2008, Konstantin burst onto the concert scene when he won First Prize at the Sydney International Piano Competition. He is the first and only competitor to date in the 40 years of the competition to win both First and People’s Choice Prizes, in addition to six other prizes. Since then, Konstantin has performed extensively throughout the world. In Australia, recent and future season highlights include engagements with the Australian Chamber Orchestra (on a national tour) Queensland Symphony, West Australian Symphony and regularly with the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra whom he enjoys a special relationship.
