Since his relatively late emergence onto the scene, New York-based composer Alexey Shor has rapidly built a popular and appreciative following for his style of composition that, while a product of the 21st century, closely follows in the footsteps of the great composers of the 18th and 19th centuries.
Since his entry to the concert hall, Shor has enjoyed a busy and productive schedule, his works being performed in prestigious venues including Carnegie Hall, Wiener Musikverein, Berlin Philharmonie, Kennedy Center, Great Hall of Moscow Conservatory and the Mariinsky Theatre amongst many others. Shor’s music has been performed various times in Japan since 2017, most recently including at the Japan Piano Open and the ‘Japan Grande Classico’ Music Festival in October 2019.
