Performers

Elisabeth Brauß

Piano

Of the young German pianist’s debut disc – which included sonatas by Beethoven and Prokofiev – Gramophone wrote: ‘It is rare to encounter this degree of instrumental mastery wed to musical depth and sensitivity in one so young’. After winning major international prizes she joined the BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artists from 2018 to 2020 and made her BBC Proms debut the following year. She is now a regular visitor to Wigmore Hall, and her programme is themed around goodbyes.
