Artur Cimirro (born September 30, 1982) is a Brazilian pianist, composer and art critic.
Born in Bagé, Brazil, Artur Cimirro started his musical studies in 1995 with the acoustic guitar and in 2001 dedicated himself only to the piano. Cimirro had classes with Leandro Menezes Faber and attended several Master-Classes of different pianists.
Artur Cimirro has played in Brazil and in other countries like: Spain, Germany, France, Switzerland, Poland, Bulgaria, New Zealand and Australia, invited by Music Universities and International Festivals.
Throughout his studies Artur Cimirro developed an interpretative technique which he calls "Scientific Interpretation System" where the works are analyzed taking into consideration their historical factors involving composer and work, with a faithful reading of the score in the compositional context (contrapuntal/harmonic/analytic).
As a composer, Artur Cimirro is strongly influenced by the composer/pianists of different languages such as Franz Liszt, Leopold Godowsky, Ferrucio Busoni, Kaikhosru Shapurji Sorabji. Among Cimirro's works there are a Piano Sonata (his Op.3) which takes 2 hours to be played in its 6 mouvements as well as symphonic works including two Symphonic Poems (No.1 "The Masque of the Red Death" based on Edgar Allan Poe's tale with the same name, and No.2 "Curupira"). At the present time an opera entitled "The King of the Jews", with text in aramaic, based in the life of Jesus Christ is being composed by Cimirro. Cimirro made his second set of Eccentric Preludes Op.13 specially for Stuart & Sons 102 key pianos and he was the first composer in the world to make piano pieces using the range limits of 108 keys from contra C to the top b in his Eccentric Preludes Op.20.
