ABOUT JENNIFER KING
Spirited and sensitive, Jennifer King is a versatile pianist who enjoys exploring the world of classical
music in the 21st century through the presentation of new music and the revisiting of past musical gems. She has established herself as a sought-after talent on concert stages across Canada in both the role of soloist and collaborative artist.
“…dramatic out of this world sonic listening featuring contrasting harmonic textures. King’s sensitive performances make for moving moonlight listening.” (The WholeNote)
King creates “an introspective and meditative universe, both serene and lively. Contrasted both emotionally and aesthetically,... soothes and brings warmth to the cold winter.” (PanM360)
"One can only be charmed by the calm and meditative sweetness that emanates from her piano interpretations. Modern musical language often takes us out of our comfort zone and brings with it its share of anxieties, but it can also be intoxicating when the pace quickens. There are many moments when the music reaches heights of vitality. One can say that the album breathes renewal." (La Scena)
JENNIFER'S LATEST ALBUM!
Jennifer King’s solo piano album Souvenance is a collection of nocturnes, romances, and meditations grounded in the romantic era and branching into the 20th century. Including rarely heard music by Ethel Smyth, Clara Wieck-Schumann’s beloved "Notturno", and Jennifer’s own meditation on Joni Mitchell’s "Blue", the album is an introspective journey rich with heartbreak, hope, strength, and tenderness. Recorded in Jennifer’s living room, Souvenance invites the listener to sit on the piano bench beside her for a deeply personal experience of the music. Souvenance’s composers are all women, most of whom faced formidable gender-based barriers to having their voices heard. This album is nominated for Classical and Instrumental Release of the Year with The East Coast Music Association Awards for 2026.
