Francisco Fierro is a renowned Spanish pianist. Born in Madrid, he made his debut at the Weill Recital Hall of Carnegie Hall in New York in 2015 and his career has led him to play in major Spanish venues such as the Teatro de la Maestranza in Seville, the Palau de la Música in Valencia, Palau de la Música in Barcelona, the Miguel Delibes Auditorium in Valladolid, Teatro Monumental, Auditorio de Zaragoza, Sala María Cristina and Teatro Echegaray in Málaga, the International Auditorium of Torrevieja, the Juan March Foundation in Madrid, the Royal Academy of Fine Arts and the National Auditorium of Madrid.
He is invited to international festivals such as the Kosovo Chopin Fest, International Chopin “Pianino” Festival in Valldemossa in Mallorca, Rafael Orozco International Piano Festival in Córdoba, Miami Piano Festival Academy, Colombes International Piano Festival in Paris, Paderewsky Piano Academy in Bydgoszcz, Poland and the Beethoven Society of Europe offering concerts at Steinway Hall, Saint James Piccadilly, Bolívar Hall and Regent Hall in London, among others. In the United States, he has performed in different rooms, including the James & Nancy Gaertner Performing Arts Center in Huntsville, Texas, Embassy of Spain in Washington, D.C., Adolfo and Marisela Cotilla Gallery in Miami, Bates Recital Hall in Austin, Texas, Hungurian Cultural Gardens in Cleveland, Ohio and Carnegie Hall in New York. In 2020, he made his debut with the RTVE Orchestra performing Sergei Rachmaninov's concert No. 3, recording live.
His musical education began late at the age of 12 at the Padre Antonio Soler Integrated Center in San Lorenzo de El Escorial in Juan Crespo's class. He then completed his higher studies at the Conservatory of Castilla y León in Salamanca and after receiving a scholarship in 2015, he moved to Houston, Texas, in the studio of the pianist Josu de Solaun, who has been and is a fundamental pillar in his musical life. Also very important in her training was the prestigious professor Galina Eguiazarova, a legendary teacher at the Reina Sofía School in Madrid.
In his role as a performer, composition and improvisation form an equally important part, premiering his own works and performing improvisations in each performance offered. His projects include the recording for Bravo Cultura carried out at the Palacio de Longoria in Madrid and performing live improvisations. This recital is broadcast exclusively for the Filmin platform.
During the 2023/24 season, he made his debut in China giving a concert tour under the invitation of the prestigious agency Wu Promotion. In addition, he became part of the Magnacore Trio formed by the soloists of the Spanish Radio Television Orchestra (RTVE), the violinist Yulia Iglinova and the cellist Javier Albares. He debuted at the Torrevieja International Auditorium with the OST and made his debut with this same orchestra at the Palau de la Música in Valencia. In the month of April, he performs concerts in Madrid and Salamanca together with the acclaimed violinist Jiyoon Lee, concertmaster of the Staatskapelle in Berlin. Since 2023, he has become the artistic director of the Alicia de Larrocha International Music Festival, which celebrates its first edition in Madrid.
His next commitments include his participation in the Mendigorría festival, the recitals with cellist Tony Rymer and his participation in the concert season of the Zaragoza Philharmonic in the Mozart Hall of the Zaragoza Auditorium, dedicating a recital entirely to improvisation. Francisco Fierro has been professor in residence at the Escuela Superior Musical Arts in Madrid since 2020.
The students enrolled in the program will participate in three individual classes of 45 minutes together with the professor who is the teacher of the program.
Students will actively participate in concerts throughout the duration of the Musical Arts Summer Program, performing in them the works worked with their teachers.
The master classes will be held in the classrooms of the Escuela Superior Musical Arts, which has fully equipped facilities for their development, so that course participants will be able to make use of these classrooms for individual practice.
All the activities of this program will take place between the stipulated dates (see info for each program). In them, individual classes and student concerts will take place, distributed within the indicated date range, so that students can organize their study time and prepare for their meetings with the teachers.
