- florian verweij, pianist -

Dutch pianist Florian Verweij (1997) is praised for his open-hearted and poetic performances, supported by a virtuoso technique and vibrant spontaneity.

'He is a true poet at the piano with a vast technical arsenal, which he always uses in deeply musical ways; someone with crystal-clear intelligence, sensitivity and musical understanding,' said pianist and Liszt specialist Leslie Howard. In 2023, Verweij made his recital debut in the Amsterdam Concertgebouw for a sold out Recital Hall. In 2024, he released his debut album Sonorités de Paris (Gutman Records), which received rave reviews in the press: 'a solid technique, great emotional sensitivity and a musical instinct that pops up everywhere,' wrote De Gelderlander.
