Suzanne Husson
"Two phenomenal hands!" - this is the way in which the famous pianist Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli described Suzanne Husson, who is considered by international critics to be one of the foremost interpreters today. She was born in Buenos Aires, to French parents, and now lives in Geneva. Suzanne Husson began her musical studies when she was five, under the guidance of Elisabeth Westerkamp de Rathe (a student of the famous professor Scaramuzza) at the Conservatory "Manuel de Falla" in the Argentinian capital. She gave her first public concert when she was 8. She moved to Europe to specialize mainly with Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli, Luis Hiltbrand, Bruno Seidlhofer, Nikita Magaloff and Carloz Zecchi. She has won first prize at the "Argentinian Mozarteum” , first prize or virtuosity 'with distinction at the Geneva Conservatory and a prize in the Josef Pembaur Foundation competition in Bern. She has been awarded distinction on at competitions in Geneva Vercelli, ~Barcelona’s ''Maria Canal"(forthe bestinterpretation of Spanish music), Lisbon's "Vianna da Motta" Paris' "Magda Tagliaferro" (special R. Juilliard prize). She has performed on television and on radio, at important festivals, in concert halls at recitals and as a soloist (in Europe, the United States of North America and South America), often premiering new works. She has played with the violinist Patrice Fontanarosa, with Vienna 's Musikverein-Quartet andunder the direction of conductors such as Charles Dutoit, Armin Jordan, Horst Stein and Wolfgang Sawallisch with whom she made her most recent record.

Her vast repertoire which includes both classical and modem music, is not purely a matter of quantity, but rather a reflection of her own carefully thought-out choice.
