About Jonathan Plowright

Pianist Jonathan Plowright has specialized in Polish piano music, performing unknown works as well as standard repertory by Chopin. He has also recorded the complete piano works of Brahms and is an important educator. He has performed concertos with the London Philharmonic, Warsaw Philharmonic, and several BBC groups. Plowright has joined leading chamber ensembles, including the Brodsky and Szymanowski Quartets, and his duet partners have included pianists Piers Lane and cellist Raphael Wallfisch. As a solo recitalist, Plowright has focused on Polish music, covering not only well-known works of Chopin but also little-known Polish Romantic composers such as Zygmunt Stojowski and Ignace Jan Paderewski. In 2002, he released a recording of Stojowski's two piano concertos as part of The Romantic Piano Concerto series. In 2021, he returned to the series for performances of piano concertos by Jerzy Gablenz and Ignace Jan Paderewski.
