Brazilian pianist, teacher and communicator Antonio Vaz Lemes has been gaining recognition for his artistic versatility and his commitment to bringing classical music closer to increasingly wider audiences. Holding a bachelor’s and master’s degree in performance from UNESP, he was described by Gramophone magazine as “a Latin American Pollini” in recognition of his technical excellence and depth of interpretation.

Combining artistic performance, education, and digital communication, Vaz Lemes is the creator of PianoQueToca, a channel and platform for online courses dedicated to democratizing access to piano and classical music. His work encompasses a broad and diverse repertoire—from the classical canon to film soundtracks, series, anime, video games, Brazilian music, and even football anthems—building an inclusive, educational, and human-centered musical experience.

By uniting artistic sensitivity, technical mastery, and an innovative spirit, Vaz Lemes has developed a career that respects pianistic tradition while engaging with contemporary audiences, establishing himself as a unique voice in the Brazilian and international music scene.
