Ronald Turini
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
At the age of sixteen, Montrealer Ronald Turini, holding a scholarship from the Conservatoire de musique du Quebec, met the legendary Vladimir Horowitz. Horowitz was sufficiently impressed to take him on as a student, one of the very rare students he accepted. A few years later, in 1961, Ronald Turini had a brilliant American debut at Carnegie Hall. He was the first Canadian artist to ever win a prize at the Queen Elisabeth International Music Competition of Belgium, at the Concorso Pianistico Internazionale Ferruccio Busoni and at the International Competition for Musical performers in Geneva. Founding member of Quartet Canada, Mr. Turini teaches piano at the University of Western Ontario, in London. for more information please check Encyclopedia of Music in Canada [1]
