Johann Sebastian Bach: Das Wohltemperierte Klavier II
Philip Lasser: 12 preludes for solo piano "The Art of Memory"

Born in 2001, the Finnish-Cuban pianist Anton Mejias was fascinated by the music of Bach from a very young age. He made his recital debut at the age of eight, and by ten, he had already learned the entire Well-Tempered Clavier, Book I. Since then he has added the complete French and English Suites, all six partitas, and the Well-Tempered Clavier, Book II, to his repertoire.

In August 2023, Anton Mejias made his US debut with the Los Angeles Philharmonic at the Hollywood Bowl under conductor Tarmo Peltokoski. He has played with the Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra, Tampere Philharmonic Orchestra and the Hallé Orchestra Manchester. Mejias made his debut with The Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen at Musikfest Bremen in 2024 performing Beethoven with conductor Tarmo Peltokoski, and performed Prokofiev Piano Concerto with the Latvian National Symphony Orchestra.

In March 2025, Mejias released his first Album with Deutsche Grammophon “The Art of Memory” featuring Bach’s Well Tempered Clavier Book 2 and Philip Lasser’s 12 Preludes “The Art of Memory” woven in-between.
