(Le) Poisson Rouge says…

The French-Canadian pianist and composer, Marc-André Hamelin, began his piano studies at the age of 5 and was 9 years old when he won the top prize in a Canadian music competition. Marc-André Hamelin is internationally renowned for his effortless musical virtuosity and refined pianism - many regard him as the supreme technician of the instrument. Perhaps best known for his attention to lesser-known composers especially of the late 19th and early 20th century (Leo Ornstein, Nikolai Roslavets, Georgy Catoire, Charles Ives), and for performing difficult works by pianist-composers such as Leopold Godowsky, Charles-Valentin Alkan and Kaikhosru Shapurji Sorabji, he is equally at home with the standard repertoire.
