“One of the most admired pianists of his generation” (New York Times), Inon has received universal acclaim for his “uncommon sensitivity” (The New Yorker), “impeccable musicality and phrasing” (Le Figaro), and his stature as “a true poet of the keyboard: refined, searching, unfailingly communicative” (The Evening Standard). A multifaceted musician, Inon is equally celebrated as soloist, curator, and collaborator.
As a soloist, Inon has performed with the world’s foremost orchestras and conductors including the New York, Los Angeles, London, Helsinki, Hong Kong, and Royal Stockholm Philharmonics, the BBC, Chicago, Cleveland, and Boston Symphonies, Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra, and the Tokyo Metropolitan Orchestra Symphony.
Inon’s 2024-25 season highlights include performances with the Naples Philharmonic and the San Diego, New Jersey, Pasadena, Boston, Tokyo, Israel, and Atlanta Symphonies. He continues his collaboration with cellist Alisa Weilerstein, with performances at Stanford Live and Celebrity Series of Boston and alongside James Ehnes at Wigmore Hall. Inon and Alisa released their highly anticipated album of Brahms’ Cello Sonatas, released by Pentatone in November 2024.
Equally at home as a curator and chamber musician, Inon is Music Director of La Jolla Music Society Summerfest. He regularly collaborates with world-class partners such as Renée Fleming and Alisa Weilerstein and plays at major chamber music festivals including Seattle, Santa Fe, and Spoleto USA. Inon was a member of the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center’s Bowers Program from 2006 to 2009 and continues to perform with CMS in New York and on tour. inonbarnatan.com
