Roberto Prosseda, born in Latina, Lazio, in 1975, is one of the most active and versatile Italian musicians on the international scene. He gained worldwide fame following his recordings of the complete Mendelssohn piano music (Decca, 2005-14).
Over the past 20 years Roberto has performed with the world’s leading orchestras and conductors. With the Gewandhausorchester and Riccardo Chailly, he recorded Mendelssohn’s unpublished E minor piano concerto. In Italy he is a regular guest at all the major concert venues. Roberto is particularly acclaimed for his interpretations of Mozart, Schubert, Schumann and Chopin. In 2022 Roberto completed a project to record the complete Mozart piano works.
Since 2011 Roberto has also played the pedal piano in public, having re-discovered and presented in modern premieres many pieces by Alkan and Gounod. For Hyperion he recorded Gounod’s four pieces for pedal piano with the Orchestra della Svizzera Italiana and Howard Shelley. Roberto has performed on the piano pedal in over 100 concerts, contributing to the revitalization of the instrument and its repertoire.
Roberto is equally active as a music writer and author of radio and TV projects, as well as a creator of innovative musical programmes. He conceived three television documentaries, about Mendelssohn, Chopin and Liszt, produced by RAI and globally distributed by EuroArts. His book Il Pianoforte, a listening guide to piano repertoire, was published by Edizioni Curci in 2013.
