After taking her diploma in 1990 at the Royal Danish Academy of Music in Copenhagen, she studied with among others Seymour Lipkin in New York, Boris Berman and Peter Feuchtwanger in London. Today she is one of Scandinavias most famous pianists.

Katrine Gislinge's concerts have evoked a broad spectrum of superlatives. She is well known for her musical imagination and profound empathy with the classical repertoire:

"Katrine Gislinge has added cubits to her status as a pianist in recent years. She has emerged from the role of child prodigy and is now a mature artist with a rich array of resources." . . .

"Gislinge is a winner." So wrote the music reviewer Jens Brincker in Berlingske Tidende on 18th January 1998. Since then Katrine Gislinge's career has picked up speed: a CD recording on Deutsche Grammophon, chamber music collaboration with international artists like the German Petersen String Quartet, the cellist Jian Wang, cellist Marc Coppey, the flautist Emmanuel Pahud, the violinist Augustin Dumay and the violist G?àrard Causs?à; solo concerts at international festivals (fx. Festival Internacional Cervantino in Mexico and 'Le Festival de Radio France et Montpellier') and soloist performances conducted by among others Eri Klas, Hiroyuki Iwaki, Michael Sch¬Ønwandt, Okko Kamu, Heinrich Schiff, Kurt Sanderling, Adam Fischer and Sylvain Cambreling.

You can also experience Katrine Gislinge as a teacher, - from time to time she gives Master Classes, - recently she gave a Master Class for pianists at The II International Piano festival, Helsingor-Helsingborg in Sweden.
