""With a sobriety that hinders neither intensity nor freshness, the Dutch pianist Antal Sporck manages to seduce the real music lover."
(J.D. Burtin in La République du Centre - March 5th 2008)

“His ´motionless´ but moving way of playing was remarkable. Such quick fingers, and what a profound expressiveness.”
(S. van Ek in Friesch Dagblad, November 2008)

George Benjamin about Antal Sporck: "He seems to me an unusually dedicated and talented musician."

As the elder son of a pianist couple, Antal Sporck (1981) was introduced to music in his early youth. Consequently at the age of five he not only played the piano, violin and trumpet but also composed his first pieces. When he was twelve years old his first compositions were publicly performed. His Variations, written for The New Ensemble won the first prize at the 1999 Princess Christina Competition. Two years later, Antal presented himself as a soloist in his own piano concerto.
Antal was conductor at The New Opera Academy, and conducted the Dutch Chamber Orchestra and the Limburg Symphony Orchestra. In 2006 he gained his masters of piano degree with distinction. Hereafter, Antal has worked together with composer George Benjamin on his piano music, and gave the Dutch premiere of Benjamin's Piano Figures. In 2008 Antal made his solo debut in the Concertgebouw, Amsterdam.
Antal won 2nd prize and the Boucourechliev prize at the Orléans International Piano competition, and also won the Chevillion-Bonnaud prize for his 5 Preludes. In 2008 he gave a series of ten solo recitals in the major concert halls of The Netherlands. Antal also performs as a chamber musician.
The Dutch regional and National Television have covered Antal extensively. His compositions were premiered at the Festival of Flanders, and at the 'St. Petersburg Musical Spring' festival. In 2009 'Fantazias for String Quartet' has been premiered at the Ravel festival in Montfort L'Amaury.
