“The music played by Romain Nosbaum is a matter close to his heart. This
can be felt with each note. He questions the works, romantically lives
them for some moments, and retreats into insight afterwards.”
(Pizzicato)

Romain Nosbaum is an individualist among the pianists of his generation.
Without airs and graces, but with modesty and passionate devotion, he is
solely focused on music. Both the grand gesture and sheer brilliancy
have no meaning to him – instead, his playing stands out through
intelligence, subtle individuality and technical perfection.

The subtlety and immediacy of his pianistics encourage Romain’s
repertoire, which focuses on the romantic piano literature as well as
music of contemporary composers. A universal interest in ‘tradition and
innovation’ expresses itself not only soloistically, but also through
his activities as a passionate chamber musician. Thus, he regularly
performs as a vocal accompanist with artists such as his sister
Véronique.

He is also a member of the Random Trio, which comes with the colorful
instrumentation of flute, violoncello, and piano. Moreover, Romain is
very involved in interdisciplinary projects such as Claude Mangen’s
staging of Schubert’s Winterreise, Giorgio Mancini’s live choreography A
nima, or the musical readings of texts by Vaslav Nijinsky and Michel
Houellebecq together with actor Christian Berkel and pianist Kevin
Tamanini.
