Considered by Martha Argerich an “extraordinary musician” and by the international critics a “phenomenon” and “a master of contrasts,” Steinway Artist Alexandre Dossin keeps an active performing, recording, and teaching career.
Alexandre Dossin is Professor of Piano and the Chair of Keyboard at the University of Oregon School of Music and Dance. Originally from Brazil, Alexandre Dossin is a graduate from the Moscow Tchaikovsky Conservatory (Russia) and holds a doctorate from the University of Texas at Austin (USA).
A prizewinner in several international piano competitions, Dossin received the First Prize and the Special Prize at the 2003 Martha Argerich International Piano Competition in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Other international awards include the Silver Medal and second Honorable Mention in the Maria Callas Grand Prix, and Third Prize and Special Prize in the Mozart International Piano Competition, in addition to several prizes in Brazil.
An active recording artist, he has numerous CDs released with several labels, including 10 CDs with Naxos. Dossin is an editor and recording artist for several Schirmer Performance Editions. Dossin’s edition and recording of complete piano sonatas by W. A. Mozart (2-volume edition and recordings, Schirmer Performance Editions) was released in the fall of 2023. Other recent releases include the complete piano works by George Walker in 2 CDs with Naxos (2024). A performance edition of the same works published by Keiser Southern Music will follow in 2026, in addition to an all-Prokofiev CD with Naxos.
Soloist appearances in past seasons include the Eugene Symphony, the Austin Symphony, Porto Alegre Symphony in Brazil, in addition to the West Coast premiere of George Walker’s piano concerto with the University of Oregon Philharmonia. In 2025, he had his Central American debut during the Costa Rica Piano Festival, and in 2026, Dossin returned to Brazil for appearances as a soloist (Khatchaturian Piano Concerto) in several states, and as a faculty/artist in the largest musical festival in Latin America (FEMUSC).
Dossin’s work was praised in reviews by Gramophone, Diapason, The Financial Times, Fanfare Magazine, American Record Guide, Clavier, and other international publications.
Dossin is the Artistic Director and Co-Founder of the Oregon Piano Institute, Vice President of the American Liszt Society, and one of the recipients of the prestigious Faculty Fund for Excellence at the University of Oregon.
