Performers

Daniil Trifonov

Piano

One of today's brightest young stars, Daniil Trifonov, makes his Royal Festival Hall recital debut.

Since taking top prize at the International Tchaikovsky Competition in 2011, aged 20, the Russian pianist has won an international cult following.

'Hearing Trifonov is like having a deep-tissue massage: you keep wanting to pull away from the sheer intensity of it, and you come out feeling as if your reality had been slightly altered' (The Washington Post).

After opening the concert with the timeless world of JS Bach, he continues with Beethoven's iconic final sonata, Op.111.

The concert closes with Liszt's 12 Transcendental Studies,, headily Romantic pieces that display the pianist's virtuosic capabilities to the maximum.
