Alexandria Le is a concert pianist and artistic leader hailed as a “hypertalented pianist whose greatest asset is her power to communicate” (Boston Musical Intelligencer). Her performances have graced the world’s most prestigious stages—from Carnegie Hall in New York to Salle Cortot in Paris—as well as more intimate settings such as the French Embassy in New York City and the Parrish Art Museum in the Hamptons.

She is the winner of over twenty first-prize music awards and a laureate of the prestigious Pro Musicis International Award. Known for her versatility and expressive range, Alexandria pivots seamlessly between roles as soloist, collaborative pianist, and orchestral pianist. Whether performing Liszt’s fiery Totentanz concerto, collaborating in chamber works ranging from intimate duo sonatas to expansive nonets, or performing Copland’s Appalachian Spring as orchestral pianist, her artistry bridges virtuosity with communicative power—“a pianist who is so adept at painting tonal pictures” (New York Classical Review).

She has performed under the baton of conductors Arthur Arnold, Harry Bicket, Susanna Mälkki, David Robertson, George Daugherty, and Alexandra Arrieche, among others, and has premiered over 15 works, including those by Andy Akiho, Caroline Shaw, Jessica Meyer, and Paul Wiancko.

From 2012 to 2014, Alexandria was a fellow of Ensemble Connect, the fellowship program of Carnegie Hall, the Juilliard School, and Carnegie Hall’s Weill Institute of Music. She has served as piano staff through multiple residencies and summer programs at The Banff Centre—tucked in the heart of the Canadian Rockies—and is currently returning artist-faculty at the PRISMA Festival along British Columbia’s Sunshine Coast. Her multiple recordings appearing with flutist Suzanne Snizek appear on Centaur Records, with two albums released in the past two years (Renewed Voices and Music of Resilience) available on all streaming platforms. Alexandria is deeply honored that selections from these recordings will appear in Canada’s upcoming federally-sponsored documentaries on the Holocaust and other global humanitarian themes.

Over the past 15 years, Alexandria has merged her passion for performance with a commitment to building meaningful connections with audiences. At the heart of her work lies a deep belief that music should speak to every kind of listener. As both performer and producer, she has led the creation of concert experiences that reimagine how classical music is presented:

  • Artistic Director, RDA Performs — A concert series set inside the architectural and artistic marvel of the Rita Deanin Abbey Art Museum.

  • Co-Founder and Co-Artistic Director, Re-Classified — A bold venture merging classical music with state-of-the-art audio-visual technology through immersive programming, in partnership with Tag Team Productions.

  • Founder, President & Artistic Director, Notes with a Purpose — A nonprofit organization recognized for its community-centered programming that connects transformative musical experiences to underserved audiences throughout Las Vegas (including serving 12,500 students across 52 elementary schools). They are a partner of Carnegie Hall in their flagship program, the Lullaby Project.

  • Founder and Artistic Director, Las Vegas Wine & Music Festival — A three-day chamber music festival pairing fine wine with live performances by 23 world-class musicians, including Philip Setzer, Carol Wincenc, Frank Morelli, Alan Kay, and Pedro Diaz, featuring Sommelier-in-Residence Jaime Smith.

Dr. Le holds three degrees in piano performance, including a Doctor of Musical Arts from SUNY Stony Brook and a Bachelor of Music from the Eastman School of Music. Prior to college studies, she flew from her hometown of Las Vegas to the California Bay Area for piano lessons. Among the many people she holds immense gratitude for are her musical mentors Gil Kalish, Christina Dahl, Dan Weymouth, Douglas Humpherys, and Erna Gulabyan.

She currently resides in her hometown of Las Vegas with her partner, Leland Kantas, and their German Shepherd, Koda.

She is a Yamaha Artist.
