China Tour 2026: Honoured to be featured today by CGTN. This report offers an opportunity to reflect on a journey with China spanning nearly three decades, and on a conviction that has always guided me: when music speaks, borders fade, and a deeper human connection becomes possible.

Whispers of Autumn is a cinematic piano journey inspired by the colors and quiet beauty of Québec in the fall.

With Autumn in Québec, composer Steve Barakatt invites listeners into a peaceful moment of reflection and nature.

A personal message from Steve Barakatt, C.Q. :

Some performances go far beyond music.

Performing Lullaby, The UNICEF Anthem in Cuba was not simply about playing before an audience. It was about feeling, in a profound way, the soul of a country, the dignity of its people, and the deeper purpose that music can serve in our world.

Cuba has offered so much to humanity through its culture, its resilience, and its extraordinary contribution to the world’s musical heritage. Its artistic legacy is a treasure that must be honoured, protected, and passed on to future generations.

For an artist, there are rare moments when a concert becomes something greater than a performance. It becomes an act of connection. A moment of shared humanity. A reminder that music is not only here to entertain, but also to elevate, to unite, and to safeguard the values that define our common human dignity.

As a UNICEF advocate, this meaning resonates deeply with me. I have always believed that music can carry a message far beyond words — a message of compassion, hope, peace, and respect for every child, every family, and every people whose story and heritage deserve to endure.

I will always carry this moment in my heart as a reminder that the true mission of music is to serve humanity, to honour the soul of a people, and to help preserve what is most precious in the human spirit for the next generation.

Presented as part of the Néoréalité World Tour at the Basilica de San Francisco de Asís, Havana, this concert brought together two nations through mutual respect, friendship, and a shared belief in the universal language of music. I was deeply honoured to perform alongside the renowned Cuban ensemble Camerata Romeu, under the direction of Maestra Zenaida Romeu, with the participation of the children’s choirs Sueño Diminuto and Lucecita, directed by Professor Carmen Rosa López.

This historic concert took place on November 13, 2025, to mark the 80th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Canada and Cuba.

“Melodia dei Ricordi” è un viaggio musicale intimo e cinematografico firmato da Steve Barakatt. “Hoping She Would Be There” racconta, attraverso il pianoforte, emozioni sospese tra memoria, attesa e nostalgia.

Un momento senza tempo, dove l’architettura di Roma incontra la delicatezza delle note e invita ad ascoltare in silenzio.
