About
Antti Siirala’s international career was launched when he won first prize in the 10th Vienna Beethoven competition, and was the youngest contestant. In 2009 he made his debut with the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra and in 2010 performed in a series with the Berlin Philharmonic which included Lang Lang and Helmchen.

Siirala is one of the few pianists...who clearly differentiate the composer's legato and detached articulations. His smooth transitions and long-lined trills stand out in the theme and variations. My only criticism of Op. 110 concerns Siirala's tendency to slightly round off cadences and begin certain phrases a shade under tempo...Quibbles aside, it says a lot that Siirala's polished and intelligent pianism can hold its own in a catalogue overloaded with excellence.
