North Shore Chamber Music Festival Presents Pianist Lucas Chiche

Join us for a special concert featuring Swiss pianist Lucas Chiche, presented by the North Shore Chamber Music Festival (NSCMF) and PianoForte Chicago. Lucas Chiche is a Geneva-born pianist who began studying at age four with Evgenia Pilyavina and entered the Geneva Conservatory of Music at six, later joining its Musimax programme for gifted students. He studies with Mladen Tcholitch and works regularly with Mira Marchenko. Known for his interpretations of Classical and Romantic repertoire, especially Mozart, his playing is noted for its clarity and expressive depth. In 2025, he was named a Classic FM International Rising Star and became a recipient of the 2026 Arkady Fomin Scholarship Fund. He has performed at venues including Carnegie Hall, Victoria Hall, and Salle Gaveau, and has appeared as a soloist with orchestras such as the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande and Moscow Virtuosi. Founded in 2010 by violinist Vadim Gluzman and pianist Angela Yoffe, NSCMF provides Chicago's North Shore with exceptional live chamber music performances.
