Ingrid Fliter began to study the piano in her hometown Buenos Aires with Elizabeth Westerkamp. In 1992 she moved to Europe where she continued her training in Freiburg with Vitaly Margulis, in Rome with Carlos Bruno, and with Franco Scala and Boris Petrushansky in Imola, Italy, where she assumed a teaching position herself in 2015. Among others, she is a prizewinner of the Ferruccio Busoni Competition in Italy and a silver medalist of the Frédéric Chopin Competition in Warsaw. Winner of the 2006 Gilmore Artist Award, one of only a handful of pianists and the only woman to have received this honour, she divides her time as a busy recitalist and soloist with numerous leading orchestras between North America and Europe. Beyond that, she has played with the Israel, Hong Kong and Osaka Philharmonics, as well as the Sydney and West Australian Symphonies. A Linn recording artist, Ingrid Fliter has released the Chopin, Mendelssohn and Schumann concertos, the complete Chopin Preludes and Nocturnes as well as the first volume of the complete Mazurkas. Her two all-Chopin recordings for EMI earned her the reputation as one of the pre-eminent interpreters of that composer while her most recent EMI recording is an all-Beethoven CD featuring the Pathétique and Appassionata sonatas.
