Daniel Knukowski – Renown Pianist, Festival Artistic Director & Radio Host

10/06/2022


Daniel Vnukowski enjoys international recognition as a concert pianist, in a formidable career that has spanned five continents. He’s also the Collingwood Music Festival’s artistic director. And his newest talent is that of broadcaster. Daniel brings his passion and knowledge of classical music to the radio airwaves as host of The New Classical FM’s The Classical Jukebox, weekdays from 10am to 3pm. You can hear him over the air in Toronto, Cobourg and the Georgian Triangle, and online at classicalfm.ca.

Daniel joined our ZoomerMedia family in 2021, but has been a long-time friend, having come into our studios in Liberty Village numerous times to talk about his projects and to perform in ZoomerHall. He also has graced the stage at ideacity, where in 2019 he gave a stunning performance of Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue.
