Described as a “master of the magical art of rubato” (Hamburger Abendblatt) and as a “magician on the piano” (Mannheimer Morgen), Olga Zado touches audiences and critics around the world with her deep poetic musicianship and sparkling electrifying technique. As a highly gifted child Olga gave her first solo recitals and performances with orchestras from the early age of 7, making her international debut at the Kulturcasino Bern (age 12). Since then she performed as a soloist at major European concert venues, such as the Berlin Philharmonie, Elbphilharmonie Hamburg, the Philharmonie at the Gasteig Munich, the Gewandhaus zu Leipzig, the Mozarteum Salzburg, the Staatsoper Unter den Linden Berlin, the Meistersingerhalle Nuremberg, the Berner Kulturcasino, the Brucknerhaus Linz, the Théâtre de la Ville in Paris, the Teatro Comunale Ponchielli di Cremona, the Teatro Filarmónica de Oviedo.


Olga Zado is also passionately dedicated to chamber music and is the artistic director of the chamber music series “FinestClassics” in Mannheim, Germany. Among others, she has worked with partners such as Jerusalem Quartet, Sharon Kam, Johannes Moser, Amihai Grosz, Boris Brovtsyn, Claudio Bohorquez, Inon Barnatan, Nitzan Haroz and Antonio Meneses. She won numerous international competitions and received grants from many major foundations.
