今年4月刚在音乐厅“数字缪斯——音乐科技融创节”参演特别项目的钢琴家史蒂文·奥斯本,将于11月29日带来中国大陆独奏首秀。这位身兼克拉拉·哈斯姬尔与瑙姆堡两大国际比赛冠军,以深刻的音乐洞察力及多元曲库而闻名。
此次,他将用一场音乐会,串起两个世纪的“圆舞曲”。采用2025年10月英国威格莫尔音乐厅完全相同的曲目顺序,整场音乐会以“圆舞曲”为主题串联,它并没有从到尾都演奏“圆舞曲”,相反,奥斯本选择了7位作曲家、7种完全不同的声音语言,让“圆舞曲”从一种具体的舞蹈形式,逐渐变成一种关于舞会、记忆、爱情、梦境、忧郁和变形的音乐意向。
从舒曼的假面舞会开始,到萨蒂的静止、布朗热的花园、里亚多夫的八音盒、克莱斯勒的爱情、拉威尔的圆舞曲,最终抵达贝多芬的《迪亚贝利变奏曲》。从圆舞曲的沙龙起源、19世纪的浪漫主义变形,到现代音乐的重新诠释,最终走向贝多芬晚期作品的总结。

The extent of his range is demonstrated by his 35 recordings for Hyperion, which have earned numerous awards, and he was made OBE for his services to music in the Queen’s New Year Honours in 2022. The Observer described him as ‘a player in absolute service to the composer’.
A thoughtful and curious musician, he has served as Artist-in-Residence at Wigmore Hall, Antwerp Symphony Orchestra, City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra and Bath International Music Festival, and has written articles and talks on subjects ranging from stage fright to What does Music Mean? And he was often invited to curate festivals, including at Antwerp’s DeSingel,and for Antwerp Symphony Orchestra.
Osborne is a regular visitor to the BBC Proms, having performed there 15 times. In 2024 he gave two concerts in the same week, the first in Messiaen’s Turangalîla-Symphonie with the BBC Philharmonic under Nicholas Collon, with whom he performs it later in the season with Finnish Radio Symphony Orchestra. He then performed Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue with the Sinfonia of London.
He has a lifelong interest in jazz and often improvises in concerts, bringing this spontaneity and freedom to all his interpretations, and performing his own transcriptions as encores.
Osborne has performed in the world’s most prestigious venues, including the Wiener Konzerthaus,
Amsterdam Concertgebouw, Berlin Philharmonie, Hamburg Elbphilharmonie, Suntory Hall and Kennedy Center Washington, and is a regular guest at both Lincoln Center and Wigmore Hall.
He has worked with major orchestras around the globe, most recently Czech Philharmonic/Bychkov, Dresden Philharmonic/Runnicles, Deutsches Symphonie Orchester Berlin, Oslo Philharmonic/Petrenko, Finnish Radio Symphony/Collon, Philharmonia/Rouvali and Yomiuri Nippon Symphony Orchestras.
He has been a Hyperion recording artist since 1998, with releases spanning Beethoven, Schubert, Ravel, Liszt, Stravinsky, Prokofiev, Rachmaninov, Medtner, Kapustin, Messiaen, Britten, Tippett, Crumb and Feldman, and winning numerous awards around the world. His most recent addition is Schubert’s Piano Sonata in A major D959 and Moment Musicaux in 2025, which received outstanding reviews, and which The Times hailed as one of the Best Classical Albums of 2025 so far (five stars). His 2023 Debussy Études and Pour le piano, was awarded five stars by BBC Music Magazine and described as ‘full of superlatives’. His January 2023 performance of Tippett’s Piano Concerto with the London Philharmonic Orchestra under Edward Gardner at the Royal Festival Hall was later released on the LPO’s own label in 2025, receiving widespread critical acclaim.
Osborne was born in Scotland and studied at St Mary’s Music School in Edinburgh and the Royal Northern College of Music. He is Visiting Professor at the Royal Academy of Music and the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, Patron of both the Scottish International Piano Competition and the Lammermuir Festival, and was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh in 2014.
