About

Born in 1945 in Shanghai, where his Polish parents had fled at the outbreak of World War II, Misha Dichter came to Los Angeles with his family at the age of two. While still a student at Juilliard, he launched his international career with a stunning triumph at the 1966 Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow.
 
Misha Dichter is now considered one of the greatest pianists of his generation. “What clarity of detail and what beauty of tone ravished the ear! Not since Artur Schnabel have I heard a pianist draw such vibrant, singing tone from the upper reaches of the keyboard.” (Music and Musicians, London)
