In New York, he studied with Claude Frank at the Mannes College of Music and graduated from the Juilliard School.

Shehori made his New York debut after winning the 1974 Jeunesses Musicales Competition.

He concertises in the United States, Canada, and Europe and has performed at various music festivals and at the White House.

He has given 27 different recital programs in New York in as many years.

His commercial recordings for Connoisseur Society and Cembal d'amour include music by Beethoven, Chopin, Scarlatti, Liszt, Rameau, Rachmaninoff, and many others.

He is a two-time recipient of the La Gesse Foundation Award, and is listed on the roster of Steinway & Sons.

1987

In February 1987, Shehori assisted Vladimir Horowitz in preparing Mozart's Piano Concerto K.488, playing the orchestral reduction on second piano, while Horowitz played the concerto's solo part.

This took place in the basement of Steinway & Sons in New York City.

Later that year, Horowitz traveled to Milan and recorded the concerto for Deutsche Grammophon with the La Scala Theater Orchestra conducted by Carlo Maria Giulini.

1989

Shehori acted as page turner for Horowitz in what turned out to be the sessions for his final recording in Horowitz's New York home from October 24, 1989 to November 1, 1989.

Horowitz died just a few days later, on November 5, 1989.

Shehori has cited his friendship and artistic collaboration with Vladimir Horowitz as a significant source of knowledge and inspiration.

“Mordecai Shehori’s concert served as a welcome reminder that there is a place for originality in re-creations of classical materials.”

The New York Times

Making a Lost Style Speak to Today’s Ears (Headline)

"Mr. Shehori readings are a fascinating reminder that the largely vanished performance style he has espouse took in not only bombastic, flashy playing, but also the gentlest and sweetest of pianissimos.”

The New York Times

“Mordecai Shehori is a musician’s musician—that is, a sort of

pianist whom it will profit other pianists to study.

But there is no

reason why the general public shouldn't know of him, too, for he

brings unity, proportion, intelligence and sensitivity to all that he

plays."

New York Newsday

Shehori: Poetry in Music (Headline)

"Shehori’s temperament seems to hunt out the poetry in musical

form, the spiritual content of each score."

The Washington Post

“Shehori is rock solid and deeply musical.

This is a big—hearted interpretation, with a beautiful variety of tone colour and a sense of empathy with the composer."

BBC Music Magazine

1994

Horowitz was so pleased with Shehori's accompaniment that he began to invite him to his home on East 94th Street.

Shehori spent many evenings with the Horowitzes.

2014

In spite of that In 2014, Shehori has stated that Stern used his total control of the music world as the president of Carnegie Hall to dictate managements, presenters, record companies who he approves and who according to him should NOT have a career in music.

He attempted to sabotage Shehori's career, as he did with the great violinists David Nadien, Berl Senofsky, Aaron Rosand, Shmuel Askenazi and many others, exerting huge and insulting pressure on Shehori's family to force him to return to Israel and by blocking any possibility of Shehori making a living as a concert pianist.
