Voted « International Revelation : Solo Instrumentalist of the Year » at the French Classical Music Awards (Victoires de la Musique) in 2006, the argentinian pianist Marcela Roggeri has all the qualities of the great argentine piano tradition, as well as the zest we associate with South American artists. Born in Buenos Aires, she studied first of all with Ana Gelber, then was coached by Bruno Leonardo Gelber, who became her mentor and with whom she gives her very first concert at the Colón Theatre in Buenos Aires conducted by Pedro Ignacio Calderon.

Marcela Roggeri makes solo appearances with the Philharmonic and Symphonic Orchestras of Buenos Aires, Dortmund Philarmonic,the Florida Philarmonic, Orquestre National de Montpellier Languedoc-Rousillon and many more.

Marcela lives in London. She plays regularly in recital, with orchestra or in chamber music. Her extensive repertoire spans from Scarlatti to Gubaidulina, from Soler to Copland, without forgetting the composers from her Latin American roots: Villa-Lobos, Ginastera,
Guastavino and Piazzolla.
In 2006, Marcela Roggeri received the International Revelation Award (AEAA - MIDEM Award) ,"Victories of classical music".
