The internationally renowned concert pianist Orli Shaham is deep into a multi-year endeavour of recording all of Mozart’s piano sonatas, and now releases Volume 4 of Mozart: The Complete Piano Sonatas on Canary Classics.

“As a young musician, Mozart travelled widely and - like any good traveling salesman - needed samples to show off to prospective patrons. So, during a journey to Munich in 1774–1775, he wrote six ‘calling cards’ to play at the homes of potential benefactors,” writes Orli Shaham, with Peter Dahm Robertson, in the liner notes.

Orli Shaham has performed with many of the major orchestras around the world and has appeared in recital from Carnegie Hall to the Sydney Opera House. She is Artistic Director of Pacific Symphony’s chamber series Café Ludwig in Costa Mesa, California, and Artistic Director of the interactive children’s concert series, Orli Shaham’s Bach Yard, which she founded in 2010.

Orli Shaham is a co-host and creative for the national radio programme From The Top. She is on the piano and chamber music faculty at The Juilliard School and is chair of the board of trustees at Kaufman Music Center in New York. In 2022, Orli Shaham served on the juries of both the Cliburn and Honens International Piano Competitions.

Hailed as “a first-rate Mozartean” by Chicago Tribune, Orli Shaham has established an international reputation as one of today’s most gifted pianists.

Critics call Shaham, “an intelligent and sensitive guide” for this music.
