Born Stephen Bishop in California (1940), the American pianist studied under Lev Schorr and Myra Hess before embarking on an international career in the early 1960s, giving a memorable concert at London's Wigmore Hall. A gifted musician, he accumulated successes on tour as well as on record where his performances for the Philips label received standing ovations, including the complete Mozart piano concertos, at the turn of the 1970s. His extensive repertoire led him to approach the contemporary field, including Michael Tippett's Piano Concerto which he created between those of Richard Rodney Bennett and John Tavener. Married to Martha Argerich, this son of Yugoslav emigrants adds to his name that of his mother, Kovacevich, before using only name of Croatian origin. Stephen Kovacevich then devoted himself to conducting. He founded the Australian Chamber Orchestra (1985-1990) and then conducted the Irish Chamber Orchestra.
