When we think of a pianist, we often think of pieces by Beethoven or Mozart or even Bach, but we don’t tend to notice the ones that exist today. Case in point, Ethan Bortnick, labeled a prodigy pianist from age 7, he has appeared on TV for shows like The Tonight Show, Oprah Winfrey Network, Good Morning America, Disney Channel, Nickelodeon, and his award-winning concert specials on PBS.

He’s now become an independent artist who utilizes his skillful piano playing to define his own style. He often promotes his music through platforms such as Omegle and TikTok. His style is often described as Beethoven met Billie Eilish. His most popular song “engravings” is often seen on TikTok and can be linked to the growth of his music career.

Ethan still continues to create music with his newest song dropping on December 8th, so if his style interests you then you’d better mark your calendars.
