Lucerne’s new festival “Le Piano Symphonique” showcases the orchestral qualities of the piano... and the harpsichord, with a recital in what was once a swimming pool! 

Occupé depuis 2019 à graver l'intégrale du catalogue pour piano de Schubert, le pianiste a proposé un récital romantique et intimiste sur un bel Érard de 1859.

The Italian pianist's recital included Schubert Impromptus and rarely heard works by Beethoven and CPE Bach. 

Près d'un an après avoir enchanté le public toulousain de la Halle aux Grains, le géant de Leningrad revenait pour un nouveau récital sous l'égide de l'association des Grands Interprètes. En ligne de mire du virtuose : une véritable dissertation sur l'ornement à travers l'histoire de la musique autour de Joseph Haydn et Franz Schubert

Dame Mitsuko Uchida sources truth, beauty and graceful rebellions in a Carnegie Hall recital of Berg, Schubert, Mozart and Schumann.

Evgeny Kissin is more than a collection of bones and flesh and crazy hair: he is a sensation. Every May for the past several years, the pianist has performed a recital on the Perelman stage at Carnegie Hall, and every year the tickets have sold out by mid-October, seven or eight months in advance. These recitals are the pinnacle of any concert-goer’s season.

Let me first describe the sound of the applause: taut, front-heavy, explosive. This was before Evgeny Kissin played his first note at Symphony Hall this past Sunday. It was a packed house, with an audience that spilled out of the choir loft and onto several rows of chairs wrapped around the piano.
