About Mr. Golka: 24-year-old pianist ADAM GOLKA is the winner of two prestigious American awards: the 2008 Gilmore Young Artist Award and most recently the 2009 Max I. Allen Classical Fellowship Award of the American Pianists Association. In March 2010, he made his debut at Carnegie Hall in the Isaac Stern Auditorium, playing Rach-maninoff's Third Concerto with the New York Youth Symphony, and in September 2011, he performed all five of Beethoven’s concertos in two consecutive nights with the Lubbock Symphony. In January 2012, Adam replaced Andre Watts with the Waco Symphony, performing the Brahms Second Concerto with only three days preparation. Adam has built up a broad repertoire for his age, performing more than twenty concertos and solo works that include the thirty-two Beethoven sonatas. He is also a dedicated chamber music and lieder collaborator.
     Born and raised in Houston, Texas, Golka moved to Fort Worth when he was 15 years-old, to study with Brazilian pianist Jose Feghali at Texas Christian University. Currently, he is completing his fourth year of studies with the legendary Leon Fleisher at the Peabody Institute.
