About

Pianist & composer Michael Arnowitt is one of the most creative musicians of today. His imaginative musical landscapes and extraordinary sense of touch have delighted audiences around the world, from his home base in Toronto and Vermont, to Korea, Russia, and many European countries. His life and music is the subject of a documentary film, Beyond 88 Keys (2004). In 1989 Michael Arnowitt began his novel, 26-year-long presentation of the complete 32 Beethoven piano sonatas, matching up his age as he performed the various sonatas with Beethoven's age as Beethoven composed them. In 2013 his composition 'Haiku Textures' for three cello soloists and orchestra was premiered. A 2 CD-set of 14 of Arnowitt's jazz compositions, Sweet Spontaneous, was released by Parma Recordings in July 2018. He is currently working on a new composition, Sound Essence, for jazz quartet and Indonesian gamelan ensemble.
