About Jonathan Mamora

Indonesian-American pianist has performed across North and South America, Europe, and Asia. Winner of the 2025 Hilton Head International Piano Competition, he has also taken top prizes at the Scottish, Olga Kern, Dallas, and Maria Canals Barcelona International Competitions. His Carnegie Hall recital at Weill Recital Hall in 2023 was praised by New York Concert Review as “larger than life… with a technique so solid that it seemed at times that he couldn’t play a wrong note if he tried.”

Mamora has appeared with the Royal Scottish National Orchestra, Orquesta Sinfónica de Madrid, New Mexico Philharmonic, Bilbao Orkestra Sinfonikoa, and Dallas Chamber Symphony, among others. He is a Doctor of Musical Arts candidate at the Eastman School of Music and will begin his appointment as Director of Keyboard Studies at La Sierra University in fall 2025.
