Geoffrey Saba has lived in England for over thirty years. In the 1970’s he made his London début and was awarded a bronze medal at the First Arthur Rubinstein International Piano Master Competition. Regular touring now takes him to North America, Eastern and Western Europe, the Middle East, India, Japan, South East Asia and his native Australia, and he has played at Festivals in Sydney, Adelaide, South East Asia and the UK.
His large repertoire includes much rarely-performed music from the early part of the twentieth century. He is often invited to hold master classes during tours abroad, and when at home in London he enjoys teaching. Geoffrey’s best-selling recordings for Carlton Classics have achieved tremendous critical acclaim. They include performances of Russian virtuoso works, unusual and romantically flamboyant transcriptions, and a Schubert recital. Carnegie Concerts has also released recordings of his London solo concerts since 2001, including performances of Bach, Rachmaninoff, Mahler/Friedman and the complete Debussy Preludes. The International Franz Schubert Institute, Vienna, has published his essay on a performer’s approach to playing Schubert’s Unfinished Piano Sonatas in its facsimile edition of the C major Sonata (Relique) D840.
