Described as a “rather special talent” (International Piano Magazine), Bösendorfer pianist Alexandra Silocea has performed in venues such as Konzerthaus and Musikverein (Vienna), Carnegie Hall (New York), Bridgewater Hall (Manchester), Royal Festival Hall and at the Wigmore Hall (London), where she had the honour to play four-hands piano with Elisabeth Leonskaja at the latter’s 70th birthday anniversary concert. December 2020, Alexandra was invited by Vladimir Jurowski and the London Philharmonic Orchestra to step in at a five days notice with the third Piano Concerto “Lebewohl” by Elena Kats-Cernin for its European Premiere. Alexandra has performed at festivals such as the Ravinia in Chicago, Brighton and Ryedale Festival in the UK and the Enescu Festival where she had her debut with the Academic State Symphony Orchestra “Evgeny Svetlanov” and Vladimir Jurowski in 2019. She returned to the Enescu Festival again with Vladimir Jurowski and the Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin (RSB) in 2021. This season she is performing for the third time at the Enescu Festival, this time with the “G. Enescu” Philharmonic Orchestra and Conductor Alexandre Bloch with the Romanian premiere of Fazil Say Piano Concerto “WATER”.

In search of reaching new audiences, Alexandra is the creator of a new concert format: “Klimt meets Bösendorfer – The Tree of Life”, a concept combining solo piano music, poetry and an exceptional limited edition Bösendorfer grand piano „The Tree of Life“. The concept had its premiere in September 2022 at the Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna, on the occasion of Gustav Klimts 160th birthday, followed by the London Craft Week May 2023 and will feature during 2023/2024 in a series of concerts internationally.

2023 marks also the collaboration with contemporary composers: a new CD recording with works by Norwegian composer Martin Romberg and Chilean composer Luis Saglie is writting a Piano Concerto for Alexandra Silocea, to be performed in Chile and Australia with conductor Alejandra Urrutia.

Her debut in December 2012 in the UK together with London Philharmonic Orchestra, under the baton of conductor Vladimir Jurowski, was praised by the critics and brought her to the attention of the music world of Europe and the USA. Since then, she performes with the London Philharmonic, Bamberger Symphoniker, Vienna Chamber Orchestra, Montreal Chamber Orchestra, Gävle Symphony Orchestra, Bucharest Radio Chanmber Orchestra, Bolzano Haydn Orchestra, Meiningen Hofkapelle, Kymi and Oulu Sinfonietta, with conductors including Vladimir Jurowski, Jakub Hrusa, Leo McFall, Alexandre Bloch, Gérard Korsten, Christian Badea, Philippe Bach, etc., her concerts being live broadcast by the BBC Radio 3, Radio France, ORF, Mezzo or Marquee TV. Alexandra Silocea’s discography with recordings like Prokofiev Piano Sonatas 1-5, „Sound Waves“ or the Cello Sonatas by Prokofiev, Enescu and Shostakovich on AVIE Records brought her international recognition.

A Romanian-born French pianist, Alexandra was admitted at the age of 16 at the Universität für Musik und darstellende Kunst in Vienna and later at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse of Paris. Her artistic path is guided and mentored by Elisabeth Leonskaja and Maria João Pires and for many years in the past from the late Radu Lupu.

​Alexandra has been appointed Professor of Piano at the Vienna Conservatory „Friedrich Gulda“.
