Trained within the Russian school by Alexeï Golovine in Geneva and Evgenij Koroliov in Hamburg, François-Xavier Poizat is described by Martha Argerich as "a very talented young pianist with a remarkable virtuosity and deep lyricism" and by Boris Berezovsky as "an excellent musician with high virtuosity". Born in 1989, the French-Swiss pianist began his career at the age of 12 when the great Argentinian pianist invited him in Japan to play for the Pacific Music Festival. Since then he has performed in various other festivals all over the world.
Recently, the pianist created a sensation in the famous Tchaikovsky-Competition in Moscow (2011) when winning the Jury Special Prize, becoming the first Swiss pianist in history to be a prizewinner in this legendary competition.
