Live, Video: Kritiken zu klassischen Konzerten, Opern, Ballett und Tanz finden | Klaviersonate Nr. 3 in f-Moll, Op.14

The Cliburn-winning pianist enthralls the Wigmore Hall audience with full-blooded Stravinsky and a distinctive, rounded approach to Bach.

Ante una gran expectación y en un auditorio lleno hasta los topes, Evgeny Kissin ofreció un recital en Madrid que ha dejado una impronta excelsa e indeleble.

Un récital d’une admirable unité ! Les Chopin de Kissin furent hiératiques, son Schumann d’une justesse absolue et ses Debussy comme dans un rêve. Un voyage à vivre assurément.

If you recognize how Maurizio Pollini walks onto the stage, you can probably gauge his mood – which this evening was particularly restless. I have always wondered why he reaches the piano so quickly and almost immediately begins to play. Invariably, he has a puzzled expression on his face, as if he were wondering what all these spectators are doing in the hall – I love this shyness.

To say that the diminutive Mr Kadouch is a very gifted young pianist with a brilliant technique and a bright future is an understatement. The program overall was very well-played.
