Liebrecht Vanbeckevoort, Klavier

Liebrecht Vanbeckevoort
was born on September 26, 1984, in Mechelen, Belgium. Liebrecht obtained his master degree for piano with the greatest distinction from the Brussels Royal Conservatory, where he studied with Jan Michiels. Thanks to the support of the Robus Foundation, Fontys, Fulbright and the Belgian American Educational Foundation, Liebrecht has perfected himself during the past few years, with Ton Demmers and Jan Wijn in the Netherlands, with Elissó Wirssaladze in Germany and with Menahem Pressler and Russel Sherman in the United States. In his youth, Liebrecht was rewarded several piano prizes: he became a laureate of almost all important national piano competitions. Internationally, he obtained first prizes in the ‘Bach’, ‘Fontys’, ‘Kaufmann’ and ‘YPF’ competitions, and he was also laureate of the ‘International Steinway Competition’ and the ‘International Competition for young Musicians’. In 2007, he became a laureate in the prestigious ‘Queen Elisabeth International Music Competition’, in which he was also awarded the two prizes of the listeners of Belgium’s two most important radio and television channels, the French speaking channel RTBF and the Dutch speaking channel VRT.

Even though Liebrecht is still a young man, he already has a great deal of experience on the concert stage.

At the age of only 17, he played for the Belgian royals and in 2007 he accompanied them during their official visit to Ireland. He performed at festivals organized by renowned musicians like Philippe Herreweghe and Walter Boeykens, and played during the Flanders Festival, the Festival of Wallonia and ‘Les Sommets du Classique’ in Crans-Montana (Switzerland).

In the fall of 2007 he was the exclusive “classical star” at the famous Antwerp ‘Night of the Proms’, where he performed twelve times for a sold out ‘Sportpaleis’, accompanied by the ‘Il Novecento” orchestra conducted by Robert Groslot.

Liebrecht has given concerts in many of Belgium’s most prestigious venues: the Center for Fine Arts (Bozar), Flagey Concert Hall and La Monnaie in Brussels, the Singel and the Queen Elizabeth Concert Hall in Antwerp, the Capitole and the Bijloke Concert Hall in Ghent, the Concertgebouw in Bruges and the Casino in Knokke. Abroad, he has performed on prominent stages in a.o. Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Ireland, Italy, Israel, Switzerland, South-Africa, Canada and the United States.

He has worked with conductors such as Callegari, Deneckere, Fritzsch, González, Goodwin, Herrewhege, Judd, Levi, Matchavariani, Van den Broeck, Varga, Vermeulen, Willens and Zollman, accompanied by orchestras like the Collegium Instrumentale Brugense, the Chamber Orchestra of The Hague, arc-en-ciel, the Kölner Akademie, the European Union Chamber Orchestra, the Royal Flemish Philharmonic, the Orchestre Royal de Chambre de Wallonie, the Flemish Radio Orchestra and the National Orchestra of Belgium in concertos by Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Schumann, Liszt, Tchaikovsky, Prokofieff and Rachmaninoff.

Liebrecht can often be heard on radio and television, at home and abroad.

In the autumn of 2009, his second album, dedicated to Robert Schumann, was released by Aliud Records.

During the upcoming cultural season, Liebrecht’s main musical partners will be a.o. Yossif Ivanov, Roel Dieltiens, Justus Grimm, Aldo Baerten, Roeland Hendrikx, Jef Neve and Severin von Eckardstein.
