Florian Noack

Pianist Florian Noack has mostly specialized in Russian music. He has also begun a career as an educator. As a teen, Noack was influenced by the book Piano Music by Guy Sacre and gravitated toward virtuoso repertory by the likes of Nikolai Medtner and Sergei Lyapunov. He made his recording debut in 2013 with an album of music by Lyapunov. Noack has appeared as a concerto soloist with the Orchestre Philharmonique Royal de Liège and the Philharmonie Südwestfalen, among other groups. In 2018, Noack issued the recital Album d'un Voyageur and went on to record music by Prokofiev and Lyapunov before switching gears in 2024 with I Wanna Be Like You, an album of piano transcriptions and paraphrases.
