Andhika Patrick piano | The French Connection

Andhika Patrick's debut album, also titled The French Connection, has gained over a million streams on Spotify in less than six months since its release. It explores the depth and breadth of 19th century French composition as popularised in salons. The 1901 Arts Club is an ideal venue for performances of these works.

Andhika began music lessons at the age of four. After winning competitions in Asia, she was offered a place to study with a Juilliard piano professor at Monash School of Music (Australia), where she graduated as a Master of Music in piano performance (1st class honours).

Her performance experience includes masterclasses, as well as solo recitals and concerto appearances in Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia, Singapore, Salzburg, Munich, Oxford and many other places. In 2020-2021, during the pandemic, she studied works by Debussy and Ravel with Graham Fitch (UK) and Dr Mok (USA), both specialists in French repertoire. This project led to her CD The French Connection, produced by Graham Fitch and released by Sheva (UK) - Naxos (USA) in May 2022.

Her performance commitments in 2023 include ABC/Iwaki Auditorium Melbourne (January), London (February), Germany (February), Melbourne Recital Hall (April) and several other solo and duet performances in Melbourne and Victoria for Guide Dogs Australia.

Her videos and posts have been viewed millions of times on her social media account. Her Instagram account has over 50K active followers, which keeps her online and offline studio busy with requests for teaching from all corners of the world.
