Piano recital by Vadym Kholodenko

Combining fierce pianism, an unrivalled breadth of repertoire, and a level of interpretative refinement that ascends to the realms of poetry, Vadym Kholodenko rises as an artist the likes of which the world has rarely seen since the great pianists of the Golden Age. Gold Medallist of the Van Cliburn International Piano Competition, Kholodenko’s distinguished pianism and profound artistic gifts have led to invitations from many of the world’s finest orchestras and concert halls.

For his long-overdue return to Singapore, Kholodenko will play an extraordinary programme of piano music spanning centuries. From William Byrd’s elegant Renaissance dances to the introspective modernity of Saariaho’s Ballade, the programme traverses eras and styles. Beethoven’s sparkling Sonata in G major, Op. 31 No. 1 offers wit and charm, while Liszt’s virtuosic works — including the poetic Trois études de concert, the enchanting Valses oubliées, and the dramatic Scherzo und Marsch — showcase the piano’s full expressive range. A dazzling evening of brilliance and artistry awaits!
