In Paris she studied with Yvonne Lef\u00e9bure and in New York at the Juilliard School with Sascha Gorodnitzki, experiencing the best of both French and Russian piano traditions. Her career was launched in 1974, when the legendary Arthur Rubinstein became her mentor after her prize-winning performance at his inaugural Master Piano Competition, calling her a \u201cborn Chopin interpreter\u201d laying the foundation for her lifelong identification with this composer.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

She has won special recognition for a series of important premieres, notably Liszt\u2019s newly discovered Third Piano Concerto with the Chicago Symphony and several contemporary piano concertos.
