Prepare to be captivated by acclaimed Australian pianist, composer, and educator Ian Munro. His award in 2003 of Premier Grand Prix at the Queen Elisabeth International Competition for composers (Belgium) is a unique achievement for an Australian and follows on from multiple prizes in international piano competitions including his second prize at the Leeds International Piano Competition in 1987 which established his international profile. A versatile musician, Munro has performed many piano concerti with major orchestras worldwide, premiered contemporary masterpieces, and recorded for ABC Classics, Hyperion, Naxos, amongst others.

As well as adjudicating this year’s ACT Keyboard Association Piano Competition (13 September 2025), Munro will perform an exquisite solo recital featuring the following pieces:

• Ludwig van Beethoven – Sonata in E flat major Op. 7

• Robert Schumann – Arabesque in C major Op. 18

• Frédéric Chopin – Ballade No. 3 in A flat major Op. 47, Nocturne in F♯ major Op. 15 No. 2, Waltz in C♯ minor Op. 64 No. 2

• Ian Munro – Fairy Tales

Join us for an unforgettable afternoon as Ian Munro—esteemed adjudicator, advocate for new music, and compelling pianist—brings these piano gems to life as part of the ACT Keyboard Association's weekend of music. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to experience his artistry in the heart of Canberra!
