Aaron Diehl

Aaron Diehl made his Philadelphia Orchestra debut on the Digital Stage in April 2021 and his subscription debut in October 2021. The American Pianist Association’s 2011 Cole Porter fellow, he has appeared at such celebrated international venues as the Barbican, Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club in London, the Elbphilharmonie, and the Philharmonie de Paris, as well as domestic mainstays Jazz at Lincoln Center, the Kennedy Center, the Village Vanguard, and Walt Disney Hall. Born in Columbus, Ohio, Mr. Diehl flourished among family members supportive of his artistic inclinations, including his grandfather, piano, and trombone player Arthur Baskerville. When he’s not at the studio or on the road, he’s likely in the air. A licensed pilot, he holds commercial single- and multi-engine certificates.
