Mark Pinkus was born in Vancouver on the anniversary of Beethoven's death.
At the age of 7, Mark began composing music on his yellow acoustic piano. His first composition came to him while looking out of his living room window: a black cat was balancing on the window ledge as a rainstorm was approaching.
The inspiration for Mark's music comes from love, his relationships, travel, moods and nature, as well from the varied experiences he has had while living in Europe.
The legendary CBC radio broadcaster Cylde Gilmour described Mark Pinkus's music as "Beautiful little stories without words". Mark is presently composing and working on his 7th piano solo recording.
