Concierto desequilibrado entre las impresionantes capacidades técnicas del pianista de Belgrado y su falta de empatía para según qué repertorios.

Die Münchner Residenz Solisten ließen bei ihrem Neujahrskonzert in kammermusikalischen Arrangements bekannter Klassik sinfonischen Orchesterklang kaum vermissen.

Daniil Trifonov zeigt beim Klavier-Festival Ruhr sein ganzes pianistisches Können. Schnelle Tempi, kräftige Akkorde und weite Melodien erklangen im Dortmunder Konzerthaus. 

Ivo Pogorelich returns to Istanbul with an utterly arduous programme. Mr Pogorelić may have his adversaries and his admirers, but this was a triumphant evening for piano music.

Ivo Pogorelić returned the London stage after an absence of 15 years in a concert comprising big, popular works of the standard repertoire, which tested the pianist’s technical and interpretative skills to the limit.

The International Chamber Music Festival offered a cycling tour along some of the finest buildings in Utrecht, where music was performed in this special setting.

For pianist Jeremy Denk, Ligeti’s Études have been a kind of musical calling card. On tour, he has paired the Hungarian composer’s revolutionary studies in virtuosic pianism with Bach’s Goldberg Variations, while Denk’s latest recording presents Books I and II of the Études as bookends to Beethoven’s final piano sonata.

Lars Vogt’s unorthodox pianism knocks at Glenn Gould’s door without ever daring to fully enter his outlandish realm, and since there can only be one Glenn Gould that is perhaps just as well. In addition to the counterintuitive articulation and other Gouldian stylings his performances offer masterful soft playing and, when convincingly maintained, a taut sense of drama.

German-born pianist Lars Vogt has an established reputation as a concerto soloist, a recitalist, and a committed chamber musician, enjoying partnerships with esteemed musicians such as Christian Tetzlaff and Thomas Quasthoff. He is involved in many festivals, including one in a power station (with the power turned off) in the German town of Heimbach.
