Sergei Babayan was born in Armenia and now makes his home in New York City. He has won the highest accolades from critics, including from Montreal’s Le Devoir, which called him “a genius. Period.” Bachtrack hailed him as “one of the greatest pianists of our time,” and The New York Times called attention to his “consummate technique and insight.” In 1989 Babayan won first prize at both the Cleveland International Piano Competition and the Robert Casadesus International Piano Competition. He received first prizes also at the Palm Beach, Hamamatsu (Japan), and Scottish international competitions. In 2018 Babayan signed an exclusive recording contract with Deutsche Grammophon. His first release was Prokofiev for Two, in which he was joined by Martha Argerich for a duo partnership in Babayan’s transcriptions for piano four hands of excerpts from Prokofiev’s Romeo and Juliet and other works. A solo Rachmaninoff program followed, and most recently (2024) came Rachmaninoff for Two, in which he was joined by Daniil Trifonov. In solo recitals, chamber music and concerto appearances Babayan has performed in nearly every major musical centre on five continents. Since 2013 he has been a faculty member at the Juilliard School of Music, and since 2023 at Southern Methodist University (Dallas). LMMC debut.
