Nareh Arghamanyan was born in Armenia and is a Bösendorfer artist based in Vienna. Since winning the 2008 Montreal International Music Competition, she has performed at the Vienna Musikverein and Konzerthaus, The Wigmore Hall in London, New York's Lincoln Center, Berlin Philharmonie, Gewandhaus Leipzig, Tonhalle Düsseldorf, Osaka Concert Hall and many others worldwide.
Conductors with whom she has worked include Sir Neville Marriner, Riccardo Chailly, Kent Nagano and Alain Altinoglu, with the Wiener Symphoniker, Tonhalle -Orchester Zürich, Radio-Symphony Orchestra Frankfurt, NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchester Hamburg, Orchestre Philharmonique de Strasbourg, and L'Orchestre métropolitain de Montréal.
Nareh's festival performances include the Lucerne Festival, Marlboro, Tanglewood, Domaine Forget and Schwetzinger Festspiele. Her awards include the Franz Liszt Prize, the Georgy Cziffra Wward, Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli Prize, and distinctions from the Karajan Foundation and Orpheum Stiftung.
As a recording artist, Nareh's discography includes albums with Analekta and Pentatone, releasing critically acclaimed albums of Rachmaninov, Liszt, Prokofiev and Khachaturian. In 2018, she recorded the premiere of Franz Danzi’s Piano Concerto with the Munich Chamber Orchestra for Sony Classical. Recent solo albums feature works by Brahms and Tchaikovsky, released by Ulysses Arts, Komitas and since 2025, with German label Hänssler Classic, starting with Femme de Légende, dedicated to piano works by female composers. Her next album will be devoted to the vibrant dance music of Johann Strauss and Aram Khachaturian.
Deeply committed to fostering the next generation of musicians, Nareh organises and leads masterclasses, serves on competition juries in both Austria and her native Armenia. Her initiatives reflect a passionate dedication to nurturing young artists and building bridges between cultures through music.
Nareh's artist approach connects with the lineage of pianists such as Godowsky, Cherkassky, Arrau, Schnabel, Gilels and Michelangeli. At the heart of her artistry is the desire to connect - intimately, honestly and profoundly, whether in a quiet rehearsal room or the largest concert hall.
