Rafael Comeau is a Canadian pianist from Mission, British Columbia. He began studying piano at the age of four and has since developed a passion for performing and creating music. He is currently in his third year of undergraduate studies in Piano Performance at the University of Ottawa, where he studies under David Jalbert.
Rafael was awarded first prize in the University of Ottawa’s 2026 Concerto Competition and was selected as a semifinalist in the 2026 OSM Competition (Orchèstre Symphonique de Montréal). In addition to his solo performances, he is an active collaborative pianist and currently serves as the accompanist for the University of Ottawa Choir.
Beyond the piano, Rafael plays violin, viola, and accordion, and has a keen interest in musical arranging. His musical interests span a wide range of styles and periods, and he enjoys sharing both familiar masterpieces and lesser-known works with audiences.
