During the first edition of PianoFest you could hear the following artists at work. Every concert was a great success with standing ovations (sometimes even during the concerts) as a result.
 

  Severin von Eckardstein (1st Prize Queen Elisabeth Competition)
  Christophe Horak (Captain Berlin Philharmonic)
Nur Ben Shalom (Bayreuth Festival Orchestra)
  Yannick Van de Velde (recently 1st Prize Virtuoso Piano  Competition Italy)
  Jean-Claude Vanden Eynden, Jan Michiels and Daniel Blumenthal (all laureates of the Queen Elisabeth Competition)

and many others!
