Piotr Sałajczyk

Pianist Piotr Sałajczyk is a champion of contemporary music and has also revived forgotten Polish music of earlier eras. He is a noted educator as well. Sałajczyk was born on January 7, 1982, in Warsaw. He attended the Karol Szymanowski Academy of Music in Katowice, studying with Józef Stompel. Sałajczyk went on to the Mozarteum in Salzburg, where he studied with Pavel Gililov. He also took master classes from Krystian Zimerman, Aleksey Maximov, and others. Prizes boosted Sałajczyk's career; these included a first prize at the Eighth International Fryderyk Chopin Piano Competition for Children and Youth in 1999, an award for Best Accompanist at the Fifth Competition for Music of the 20th and 21st Centuries in 2002, and abroad, third prize at the Contessa Tina Orsi Anguissola Scotti International Chamber Music Competition in Pianello Val Tidone. Sałajczyk has been especially active as a chamber music player, and he made his recording debut in that capacity with the Silesian String Quartet on a 2015 Naxos recording of chamber works by composer Krzysztof Meyer. He has also collaborated with mezzo-soprano Urszula Kryger, violinist Piotr Pławner, and the Apollon Musagète Quartet. Sałajczyk was a member of the Lasoń Ensemble (a piano quintet) and the Wajnberg Trio. As a soloist, he has performed frequently in Poland with such groups as the Silesian Philharmonic, the Sinfonietta Cracovia, and the AUKSO Chamber Orchestra of the City of Tychy. Sałajczyk has performed many premieres of new works. He has recorded for various labels, including Dux (where he issued a solo album featuring works by Beethoven and Schubert, as well as a 2018 album reviving the complete piano works of Juliusz Zarębski), CPO, and Chandos, where he joined the Silesian String Quartet on a recording of works by Joachim Mendelson and Grazyna Bacewicz.
