Genc Tukiçi
Genc Tukiçi is an Albanian-French pianist and composer.
Tukiçi comes from a musicians family: his father Ibr'him Tukiçi and brother David Tukiçi are well known in Albania. A graduate of the Conservatory of Tirana, he then obtained the Soloist Diploma from the Ecole Normale de Musique in Paris - Alfred Cortot, where there is currently a professor.

Some concerts, including the "Sommets Musicaux de Gstaad" in Switzerland, Salle Gaveau and "Salle Cortot" in Paris, at the Théâtre antique d'Orange, or CAMI Hall in New York City, have earned him recognition as one of the most outstanding instrumentalists of his generation.[1]
He received a prestigious recognition from Nino Rota, who described him as "a great musician of international level", and noted in particular his "superb interpretations of heart and mind, in perfect symbiosis with the orchestra." His interpretations were the subject of records, particularly the ones recorded with the symphonic orchestras of the National Theatre of Opera in Tirana and Macedonian Opera Theater, with the Russian Tchaikovsky orchestra or orchestras of the Albanian and Slovenian national television. He also performs regularly with Inva Mula.
In 2012, his work appeared under the title "Music in 3D" in a book on the piano and the art of accompaniment.[2]
As a composer, he created and recorded various pieces for piano and orchestra, including several musical "paraphrases" [3] on themes from Puccini, Verdi, and Offenbach.
A CD of his compositions, together with Inva Mula and inspired by patriotic themes, was released in November 2012: it includes parts for soprano, piano and orchestra.
