Jeremy Denk

New York City-based pianist Jeremy Denk is as well known for his chamber music-making as he is for his appearances as a soloist and recitalist. Indeed, he has famously collaborated with violinists Joshua Bell and Soovin Kim and violist Roberto Diaz and has performed with the Shanghai, Vermeer, and Jupiter string quartets and Windscape. Denk's repertory is exceedingly broad, taking in works by J.S. Bach, Beethoven, Schubert, Dvorák, Richard Strauss, Bartók, and many modern and contemporary composers, like Leon Kirchner, John Corigliano, and Tobias Picker. Denk has premiered several major contemporary works, including Ned Rorem's The Unquestioned Answer (2003). In 2024, Denk and Bell joined cellist Steven Isserlis for an album of Mendelssohn piano trios.
