Born in 1986 in Paris, Jean-Frédéric Neuburger studied organ, piano, and composition before entering the Paris Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse at the age of thirteen, from which he graduated in 2005 with five first prizes. He subsequently continued his studies in Geneva with Michael Jarrell and Pascal Dusapin in composition. Since then, he has pursued a dual career as a composer and pianist, recognized for the extreme variety of his repertoire. Jean-Frédéric Neuburger has received numerous commissions, notably from the Boston Symphony Orchestra, the Evian Festival, Radio France, the Long- -Thibaud International Competition, and the Folles Journées de Nantes; his works have been performed by the Orchestre de Paris and the Boston Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Christoph von Dohnanyi, as well as by the Radio France Choir and Philharmonic Orchestra under the direction of Pascal Rophé. His chamber music works have been performed by Henri Demarquette, François Salque, Nicolas Dautricourt, Lise Berthaud, Raphaël Sévère, and Bertrand Chamayou at venues such as Lincoln Center, the Lucerne Festival, and the Musikverein in Vienna. He performs as a soloist with the most prestigious orchestras (New York Philharmonic, San Francisco Symphony, Philadelphia Orchestra, NHK Symphony, Radio France Philharmonic Orchestra, Orchestre de Paris, Orchestre du Capitole de Toulouse…) and collaborates with renowned conductors such as François-Xavier Roth, Paavo Järvi, David Zinman, Jonathan Nott, Michael Tilson Thomas… He has also worked with Pierre Boulez, notably to study his Second Piano Sonata. In January 2014, the Louvre Auditorium gave him carte blanche for a series of six concerts. He is invited to perform at the world’s leading international festivals (Verbier, Lucerne, Klavier-Festival Ruhr, La Roque d’Anthéron, Saratoga, La Jolla Music Society), and as a chamber musician, he performs with the most brilliant musicians of his generation, such as the Modigliani Quartet, Bertrand Chamayou, Renaud Capuçon, and Raphaël Sévère…  His upcoming projects include a tour of Asia with the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande and Jonathan Nott; concerts featuring Schumann’s piano concerto and the premiere of his new orchestral work *Faits et gestes* with François-Xavier Roth and the Gürzenich Orchestra of Cologne; and a recital for the opening weekend of La Scala in Paris. Recently, he has performed in Brazil and at the Festival Musica in Strasbourg with Jean-François Heisser in Stockhausen’s Mantra, in Boston with Christoph von Dohnányi in Schumann’s Piano Concerto, and at Lincoln Center in New York for the U.S. premiere of his piece Plein Ciel.

In February 2018, he premiered his own piano concerto with the Radio France Philharmonic Orchestra and Jonathan Stockhammer, to critical acclaim. He has also performed at the Berlin Philharmonie, the Philharmonie de Paris, and the Lucerne Festival with a program featuring works by Rihm and Schumann, as well as the premiere of Vito Zuraj’s *Alavo* with musicians from the Berlin Philharmonic Academy. He devotes a significant portion of his career as a performer to promoting contemporary music: in 2012, he premiered Philippe Manoury’s Piano Concerto with the Orchestre de Paris conducted by Ingo Metzmacher, as well as works by Bruno Mantovani, Phillip Maintz, and Yves Chauris. His recordings have been acclaimed by the international press. The 2008 release “Live at Suntory Hall” received a “Choc” award from *Le Monde de la Musique*, and his recording of Ferdinand Herold’s Piano Concertos received a “Choc” award from *Classica*. Jean-Frédéric Neuburger received the Lili and Nadia Boulanger Prize from the Académie des Beaux-Arts and the 2015 Hervé Dugardin Prize from SACEM. His music is published by Durand / Universal Music Classical.
