Bach’s Goldberg Variations

About the event
Miłosz Sroczyński is a Polish pianist based in Zurich. Following his early training in Poznań, he continued his studies in Hanover, Geneva (with Cédric Pescia), Zurich (with Konstantin Scherbakov and Christoph Berner) and London, where, as a scholarship holder and student of Prof. Norma Fisher, he gained the Artist Diploma at the Royal College of Music. He also received significant guidance from Janina Fialkowska and Pierre-Laurent Aimard.
His successful debut at the Davos Festival in 2024 with the Goldberg Variations led to an immediate re-invitation. In 2025 he returned there, presenting, among other works, Messiaen’s Quatuor pour la fin du temps. That same year he made his debut at the Tonhalle Zurich with the premiere of a new chamber work. He has performed the Goldberg Variations across Europe – in London, Hamburg, Berlin, Gothenburg, Zurich and Warsaw. A CD recording is due for release in February 2026.
A versatile pianist with a broad classical repertoire, he plays works by Bach, the Viennese classics, German Romanticism, Chopin, as well as French modernists and contemporary composers. He has won prizes at several piano competitions and received scholarships from renowned institutions in Switzerland, Poland, Great Britain and Israel.
“This is Bach’s Monument written in stone. (…) There was poignant purity to the long slow 25th variation. (…) It was the chiselled perfection of Milosz that was like Tureck so extraordinary.” – Christopher Axworthy, London 2023
