Croatian born pianist Maksim Mrvica is one of the biggest selling Classical – Crossover pianist in the world.

Maksim showed early promise, finishing his education at «The Franz Liszt Academy of Music» in Budapest and «Alexander Scriabin Conservatoire» in Paris, after already having won first prize in a National Competition in Croatia as well as first prize at the Rubinstein Piano Competition in France.
