Vikingur Olafsson Concert Tickets

Discover an unforgettable evening of timeless compositions with Vikingur Olafsson tickets. Icelandic pianist Víkingur Ólafsson made his considerable mark on the world of classical music by performing new piano concertos by the likes of Philip Glass, Daníel Bjarnason and Haukur Tómasson, while extending his international reputation further with a varied range of collaborations with Sayaka Shoji, Pekka Kuusisto and Björk, as well as visual artists Roman Signer and Lillevän. Born in Reykjavik, he was taught to play at a young age by his mother - a music teacher - and went on to earn a master's degree at New York's famous Juilliard School under the tutelage of Jerome Lowenthal and Robert McDonald.

He went on to win several prestigious awards in Iceland and formed his own record label to release his first album 'Debut' in 2009 featuring works by Brahms and Beethoven and followed it with 'Chopin-Bach' (2011) and Schubert's 'Winterreise' (2012), which was named Classical Album of the Year in that year's Icelandic Music Awards.

In 2016 he was signed to an exclusive recording contract by Deutsche Grammophon, sealing the deal with the album 'Philip Glass: Piano Works' featuring the American composer's piano etudes written over two decades. He went on to premier Haukur Tómasson's new piano concerto with NDR Elbphilhamonie Orchester and Los Angeles Philharmonic under Esa-Pekka Salonen.

His thoughtfully assembled recitals following different themes and his attention to detail made him a popular live attraction all over the world and his 2017 concert schedule included New York City, Hamburg, Berlin, Warsaw, Stockholm and London. Other recordings included works by Schubert and Stravinsky. He has also presented two Icelandic TV series about classical music and in 2016 he took over as artistic director of Iceland's Vinterfest and became the founder and artistic director of the Reykjavik Midsummer Music Festival. Whether it’s a grand symphony in a prestigious concert hall or a chamber music performance, there’s something all fans of classical music will enjoy.
