Rhapsody for Grandma Jeanie

Biography

Albert Frantz is an American concert pianist based in Vienna, Austria. He began piano studies at the unusual age of 17 and became a Fulbright Scholar, Bösendorfer Artist, and Ironman triathlete. Albert's unique story was the subject of a documentary and he was the cover story for Toastmaster Magazine in 142 countries. As a late-discovery donor-conceived person and children's rights activist, he speaks internationally on identity as a human right and protecting children from violence at venues including the Austrian Parliament and the United Nations in Geneva. A special highlight of the coming season will be Albert’s performance of the inaugural Concert for Children’s Rights at Vienna’s City Hall, together with the Vienna Boys’ Choir and Vienna Girls’ Choir, in support of children's rights nonprofits: UNICEF Austria, the World Childhood Foundation, Kindernothilfe and the Kinderschutzbund.
