Paweł Kamasa studied piano with Rudolf Buchbinder, Jorge Bolet and Harry Datyner. Since his German debut at the Kissinger Sommer Festival in 1987 he has performed in major European centres including the Salle Gaveau in Paris, the Tonhalle in Zurich, the Warsaw Philharmonic and the Tchaikovsky Conservatory in Moscow. Paweł Kamasa was the very first pianist ever to perform the complete cycle of Mazurkas by Karol Szymanowski in Paris (1994). His recording of this Oeuvre for KOCH/ Schwann in Munich was very much praised by Gramophone magazine, and received the Critic’s Choice Award ’98 - “...a pianist of outstanding poetry, one of the finest piano recordings of recent years...” Since 2008 he has been performing a programme called “Letters of Music”, devoted to Johannes Brahms’ late works for piano accompanied by the correspondence of Clara Schumann to the composer.
