Artiste: Nikolay Khozyainov

Bien loin du jeune musicien très prometteur qu'il était dans son album Chopin-Liszt de 2011, le pianiste russe déçoit lors d'une soirée déconcertante à plus d'un titre.

Nikolay Khozyainov charms in a jolly rendition of Mozart's K467 while Gerhard Markson and NSO give a profound rendition of Mahler's Ninth Symphony.

This was Nikolay Khozyainov’s first return visit to Dublin after having deservedly won first prize in the Dublin International Piano Competition last year. I particularly recall a brilliant and compelling interpretation of Rachmaninov’s Piano Concerto no. 3 in the final. Consequently, expectations were very high for this evening’s performance.
