"...FIERY, SPONTANEOUS, BRILLIANT​..."

…audiences, critics, and juries internationally have used these adjectives to describe the playing of the young Canadian-Ukrainian pianist. Before turning eighteen, Rizikov won half a dozen international competitions amongst adults, recorded a NAXOS CD, and performed on the world's most prestigious stages. Her benefit concerts for Ukraine have not only introduced audiences worldwide to Ukrainian music, but raised 30 000 euros, and her frequent collaboration with superstar cellist Gautier Capuçon has been met with praise. With stunning virtuosity and innovative projects for the future, this pianist is one to watch.
