Originally from Bacău, Abel Corban is considered a disciple of the pianist Viniciu Moroianu, in whose class he graduated from the Bachelor and Master’s degrees at the National University of Music in Bucharest. His outstanding results and rich stage activity recommend him as one of the most valuable young pianists of his generation. He is the winner of numerous prizes at national and international competitions, being the only Romanian pianist to win the Bela Bartok Prize at the “Liszt/Bartok International Piano Competition” – Sofia, as well as the “Tribute to Romanian Cultural Values” Competition organized by the “Sergiu Celibidache Foundation”.
