Live, Video: Kritiken zu klassischen Konzerten, Opern, Ballett und Tanz finden | L'Isle Joyeuse, Op. 26

Anna Vinnitskaya gab ihr Debüt im Kammermusiksaal der Berliner Philharmonie mit einem anspruchsvollen und wohl gelungenen klugen Programm mit Prokofjew, Debussy und Chopin.

Dans un double récital avec David Khrikuli qui a pour sa part déçu, la pianiste chinoise, Troisième Prix du Concours Chopin 2025, a marqué les esprits.

The Orchestre Symphonique de Montréal (OSM), conductor Rafael Payare, and violin soloist Simone Lamsma joined forces in a program that featured seminal works by two musical titans who settled in the United States after fleeing Europe in the mid-twentieth century.

Tout au long d'un programme original en forme de florilège de courtes pièces, le pianiste allemand a montré l’étendue de sa technique remarquable sans que cela tourne à la démonstration inutile.

Yuja Wang stuns the Gilmore Festival audience with a formidable program of Messiaen, Debussy, Scriabin, and Chopin – and a generous selection of encores.

De Scriabine à Liszt en passant par Debussy et Castelnuovo-Tedesco, la pianiste italienne a livré un récital caricatural, étonnant par son absence de dramaturgie et de construction du discours.

The Italian pianist builds to a hugely powerful rendition of Liszt’s Piano Sonata in B minor in her Barbican recital debut. 

 La pianista italiana Beatrice Rana ofreció un recital intenso de programa muy bien estrucurado que abrió y cerró con complejas obras de Scriabin y Liszt.

Judith Jáuregui ofreció un recital conformado por un personal programa que viajó de la emoción a la nostalgia.

In an evening of Hungarian and Bohemian inspired music, Jean-Efflam Bavouzet sparkles in a performance of Bartók’s Third Piano Concerto.

Le pianiste Nikolaï Lugansky a choisi Debussy, Scriabine et Rachmaninov pour son superbe récital au Théâtre des Champs-Élysées.

Jean-Efflam Bavouzet shines in Belfast, playing Ravel's Piano Concerto in G major.

What a great composer, and what a great advocate for his genius.

Un pianiste d’une rare sincérité. Compte-rendu.

A four-hour concert featuring piano music by Debussy might seem like an excessive ask, but the Perth Festival filled the venue for this stunning and highly entertaining concert by French pianist Jean-Efflam Bavouzet.

Inaugurant l'année Debussy en terre toulousaine, Daniel Barenboïm proposait, pour sa première venue à Toulouse dans le cadre de la programmation des Grands Interprètes, un récital entièrement consacré au compositeur et à l'exploration de son œuvre pour piano solo.

Conmemoramos el centenario de la muerte de Debussy y en Madrid ya hemos tenido la oportunidad de escuchar todo un recital dedicado a su obra pianística, interpretado en por Daniel Barenboim en el marco de los conciertos de Ibermúsica.

Russian pianist Anna Tsybuleva, winner of the 2015 Leeds International Piano Competition, made her Wigmore Hall debut in a programme of fantasy-like works spanning 300 years of music history.

Jean-Efflam Bavouzet's Edinburgh recital, which consisted of sonatas by Beethoven and works by Ravel and Debussy, was just pure delight, from first note to last. 

Rafael Payare préside, avec un style à la fois sérieux et détendu, à l’introduction antéchronologique dans le langage hexagonal avec Claude Debussy, puis Camille Saint-Saëns et enfin Hector Berlioz.

“Wigmore Hall is flooded now!” confessed Philippe Cassard. It was Claude Debussy who left the tap running, with every form of precipitation – rain, snow, fog – pouring from the Steinway's keyboard, trickling from fountain, springing from river beds. 

Il ne m’appartient pas de savoir exactement à quoi tient la supériorité des pianistes espagnols dans Granados, mais entre autres choses, ils en possèdent naturellement l’idiome… Attention cependant à ne pas en contaminer le reste du répertoire ! Ce soir, même Chopin avait goût d’huile d’olive, la moindre Nocturne se payant des airs d’Alborada.

An elegant venue with a fine acoustic and a beautiful Steinway piano, coupled with one of the UK's most gifted pianists active today made for an evening of music making of the highest calibre.

A sensitive performance by pianist Pavel Kolesnikov revealed hidden nuances in Debussy's Préludes and L'isle joyeuse.

At Wigmore Hall, Philippe Cassard took us on an engrossing picture postcard tour of Debussy’s musical world. 

Alexei Lubimov’s recent late-night recital at the Mostly Mozart Festival alternated rippling, dappled notes of Debussy with the playful simplicity of Satie’s music, contrasting vivid Debussyste images with the static yet aimless wandering of Satie’s rarely-performed piano works.

Cédric Tiberghien’s recital at Symphony Center on Sunday built up like a crescendo, rising to ever greater heights of contrast, color, and explosive energy.

This concert was an intimate occasion to witness a master pianist breathe life in to favourites as well as lesser known works for the piano.

Stephen Hough’s solo piano recital had an immediate appeal even before the first note sounded. The programme’s design followed perfect symmetry of Claude Debussy and Frédéric Chopin’s Four Ballades.

A key performance unlocks every note of familiar pieces so they can be enjoyed as if for the first time. Tiberghien began by paying homage to the “amazing” acoustics of Koerner Hall, then proved it by opening the minuet of Schubert’s Six moments musicaux softly as a breeze coloured lightly with birdsong.

To perform so many of Debussy’s works in one sitting requires a certain amount of skill and understanding. The charismatic pianist Jean-Efflam Bavouzet opened our eyes to the impressionistic world of Claude Debussy in this special three-part concert for the Cheltenham Music Festival.
