Through his cosmopolitan heritage, coupled with a flair for storytelling, he strives to become a leading ambassador for classical music.

As a soloist, Adam commands a thrilling diary of international concerts and outreach engagements, having performed at distinguished venues and, as devoted ensemble pianist, collaborated with numerous fellow musicians.
