Lucas Krupinski is a British-Polish pianist and Steinway Artist, celebrated for his refined lyricism, poetic tone, and depth of expression.<\/p>\n
Since his Carnegie Hall debut in 2018, Lucas has appeared with orchestras such as the Royal
\nPhilharmonic Orchestra, Jerusalem Symphony, China National Symphony, Warsaw Philharmonic,
\nSinfonia Varsovia, Buffalo Philharmonic, Armenian State Symphony, Bratislava Radio Symphony,
\nGeorge Enescu Philharmonic, and the Orchestra of the Americas. He has performed at major venues across Europe, Asia, and North America, including the Royal Albert Hall, Wigmore Hall, La Fenice, Salle Cortot, Auditorium La Verdi, Merkin Hall, and a special recital at the PyeongChang Winter Olympics.<\/p>\n
His debut album, Espressione, featuring Chopin, Scriabin, and Haydn, was praised by Gramophone, Pizzicato, and international broadcasters for its passionate reading and rich tonal colour, receiving airplay on BBC Radio 3, WQXR New York, ABC Australia, Polish Radio 2, and CBC Canada. It was nominated for the International Classical Music Awards alongside albums by Krystian Zimerman and Evgeny Kissin.<\/p>\n
A dedicated chamber musician, Lucas has been a member of the Penderecki Trio since 2023, alongside violinist Leticia Moreno and cellist Claudio Boh\u00f3rquez. In solo recitals, he is increasingly
\nrecognised for a style that balances tradition and spontaneity, often weaving moments of improvisation into his interpretations.<\/p>\n
Born in Warsaw in 1992, Lucas studied with Joanna \u0141awrynowicz before continuing at the Chopin University of Music in Warsaw with Alicja Paleta-Bugaj and Konrad Skolarski, graduating with Magna cum Laude distinction. He continued advanced studies with Arie Vardi in Hannover and Dmitri Alexeev at the Royal College of Music in London, and is currently pursuing a doctorate at the Chopin University in Warsaw. Lucas continues to refine his artistry under the mentorship of Murray Perahia in London.<\/p>\n
Lucas won the Grand Prix at the 7th San Marino International Piano Competition, along with all three top prizes: Audience, Critics\u2019, and Orchestra Awards. He also reached final rounds of the Busoni, Leeds, and Chopin piano competitions, and won first prizes at international contests in Hannover (Chopin Gesellschaft), Aachen (ClaviCologne), and Yamaha Europe.<\/p>\n
In addition to being a three-time laureate of the Minister of Culture and National Heritage Award, Lucas has received scholarships from the Krystian Zimerman Foundation and, most recently (June 2025), the prestigious Minister of Science and Higher Education Scholarship for
\nOutstanding Young Researchers \u2013 as the sole doctoral student in musical arts nationwide. He was also honoured with a Commemorative Medal from the Chopin University of Music in recognition of his artistic achievements.<\/p>\n
As his artistic vision evolves, Lucas continues to expand his repertoire, working toward major orchestral recordings with works by Scriabin, Ravel, Chopin, Rachmaninov, and living composers such as Arvo P\u00e4rt and Philip Glass. His 2025 engagements include a performance for the Chopin Society UK, plus appearances in China, Australia, Dubai, Greece, Spain, Norway, Poland, and the Caribbean.<\/p>\n
