Piotr Anderszewski is one of the most prominent pianists of his generation and is a regular guest in all the world's major concert halls.
He has performed with the Berlin Philharmonic, the London and Chicago Symphony Orchestras, the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, the Gewandhaus Orchestra and the Chamber Orchestra of Europe, which he also conducted from the piano. Recitals have taken him to London's Barbican Centre and the Royal Festival Hall, Vienna's Konzerthaus, Carnegie Hall and Hamburg's Elbphilharmonie.

His recordings include Beethoven's Diabelli Variations, which won the Choc du Monde de la Musique; the Grammy-nominated Bach Partitas 1, 3 and 6; and a recording of works by his compatriot Szymanowski. His album of solo works by Schumann received two BBC Music Magazine Awards in 2012, including Recording of the Year. His recording of Bach's English Suites 1, 3 and 5 received the Gramophone Award for Best Instrumental Album in 2015. After the solo album "Fantaisies" with works by Mozart and Schumann in February 2017, the recording of the Mozart Piano Concertos No. 25 & 27 with the Chamber Orchestra of Europe was released in January 2018. In 2021, his interpretation of J. S. Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier Book 2 was crowned with the Gramophone Classical Music Award.

Piotr Anderszewski, known for the intensity and originality of his interpretations, has been selected for several high-profile awards throughout his career, including the prestigious Gilmore Award, which is presented every four years to a pianist of exceptional talent.

Director Bruno Monsaingeon made two award-winning documentaries about him for ARTE. The first, from 2001, sheds light on Anderszewski's special relationship with the Diabelli Variations, while the second, Piotr Anderszewski, Traveler without Rest (2008), is a portrait of the artist and reflects Anderszewski's thoughts on music, concert activities and his Polish-Hungarian roots. A third documentary of Monsaingeon Anderszewski playing Schumann was filmed for Polish television in 2010.

In the 2023/24 season, Piotr Anderszewski will present his new recital program in Warsaw, Cologne, Hamburg, London, Berlin, Prague, Stockholm, Amsterdam, Geneva, Lisbon, Paris, Tokyo and at the Gilmore Festival in Kalamazoo, among others. He is also looking forward to concerts with the Tonhalle Orchestra Zurich, the Orchestre Philharmonique de Monte Carlo, the Orchestra della Svizzera Italiana, the NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchestra, as well as play-lead projects with the Sinfonia Varsovia and the Israel Camerata, with whom he will be touring.
