Mūza Rubackyté was born in Lithuania and lives between Paris, Vilnius and Geneva. After her studies at the Tchaikovsky Conservatory in Moscow, she was a laureate of the famous “All Union competition” in St. Petersburg, which elected the best musicians of the USSR, and then of the Grand Prix of the Budapest Liszt-Bartók International Piano Competition. In Paris, she won the First Prize in piano at the international competition “Les Grands Maîtres Français de l'Association Triptyque”. Her international career has led her to perform in recitals and concerto concerts on stages and in important festivals in France and on the five continents where her path has crossed with great conductors and renowned orchestras. Krysztof Penderecki has regularly invited her to perform his piano concerto Resurrection, a poignant work in homage to the victims of September 11. Mūza is frequently asked to be a jury member for the most prestigious competitions and provides international teaching. In Lithuania, she has received prestigious distinctions such as the Legion of Honour for the promotion of her country in the world and the Grand Cross of Commander of the Order of Vytautas the Great for services rendered to the State. The Hungarian Ministry of Culture awarded her the Pro Cultura Hungarica prize and she is President of the Lithuanian Liszt LISZtuania Society. In 2020 she payed tribute, both on stage and on record, to her compatriot the pianist and composer Leopold Godowsky, on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of his birth near Vilnius. Its discography includes more than thirty-five titles, and she has just won the 41st Grand Prix of the Liszt Society of Budapest for her CD De la valse à l'abîme Schubert / Liszt (Lyrinx).
