Fri, Jun 7, 2024, 19:30

The Ukrainian pianist was born in Kyiv in 1993; he had his first piano lessons when he was four, and is currently a student at the University of Music and the... Read full text

Discover Talent: Roman Fediurko / Piano Recital

Sun, Feb 9, 2025, 19:30
Elbphilharmonie, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Roman Fediurko (Piano)
The name Roman Fediurko is one to remember: at the beginning of 2023, the then 18-year-old won first prize and the audience prize at the Düsseldorf Robert Schumann Competition – by no means his first victory at a prestigious competition. His nuanced playing and interpretative maturity, which is far ahead of his age, were particularly impressive. The young Ukrainian has been studying with Milana Chernyavska in Graz since 2021 – as has his younger brother Oleksandr, with whom he presents captivating four-hand arrangements of works that are not typical for the piano, such as Astor Piazzolla’s Libertango, on a CD and in concert. This stylistic diversity and chamber music flair also characterise Roman Fediurko’s performance in »Discover Talent«: alongside piano classics such as works by Mozart, Rachmaninov, Chopin and Beethoven, he presents preludes by his compatriot Lewko Rewutzkyi – a tribute to the rich culture of his war-torn homeland.

Discover Talent: Giorgi Gigashvili / Piano recital

Tue, Apr 1, 2025, 19:30
Elbphilharmonie, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Giorgi Gigashvili (Piano)
»He is a particularly great talent. I was fascinated by his incredible intuition when we played together. He also plays jazz and pop, composes and sings. The new generation is very open and flexible,« enthuses violinist Lisa Batiashvili about the young pianist Giorgi Gigashvili. The Georgian initially opted for a career as a singer and arranger of pop and folk music. In the end, however, he dedicated himself to playing the piano – and quite successfully at that. In recent years, he has won numerous prestigious piano prizes, most recently 2nd prize at the Arthur Rubinstein International Piano Master Competition in 2023. The openness praised by Batiashvili is also reflected in Giorgi Gigashvili’s programme. In addition to works by Ravel and Prokofiev, the programme also includes two rarely heard composers: Josef Bardanashvili and Galina Ustvolskaya.

Elbphilharmonie, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Zhouhui Shen (Piano)
With an impressive interpretation of Sergei Prokofiev’s Piano Sonata No. 7, Zhouhui Shen earned her place in the final of the International Telekom Beethoven Competition in Bonn in 2023. The Chinese pianist, who was born in 2001, was subsequently celebrated as a »shining star« – and rightly so! After all, she has already won numerous prizes at national and international competitions, including the Juilliard Piano Concerto Competition 2022 and the International Grotrian Piano Competition 2018. In Bonn, Zhouhui Shen won third prize with Beethoven’s Second Piano Concerto. And the young pianist also performs Beethoven in her ProArte concert: in addition to his Six Bagatelles, Op. 126, the audience can look forward to works by Rachmaninov and Debussy.

Discover Talent: Arsenii Moon / Piano recital

Mon, Nov 11, 2024, 19:30
Elbphilharmonie, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Arsenii Moon (Piano)
He is a »sound magician«, his »fine and brilliant technique full of nuances«, his »very personal« style with a »unique sense of poetry in music«. They are all right, these reviewers who praise Arsenii Moon for his artistic qualities. After all, the native of St Petersburg in his mid-20s is already a household name to many in the piano world. His latest coup: at the Busoni Competition in 2023, he not only won first prize and four special prizes, but also the Benedetti Michelangeli Prize, which is only awarded in the event of a unanimous jury decision – i.e. rather rarely, the last time being almost 30 years ago. Arsenii Moon makes his Hamburg debut with a programme that is as varied as it is demanding, ranging from Bach to Chopin and Rachmaninov.

Discover Talent: Illia Ovcharenko

Sat, Apr 13, 2024, 19:30
Elbphilharmonie, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Illia Ovcharenko (Piano)
With technical brilliance and emotional insight, the young Ukrainian pianist Illia Ovcharenko presents a daring programme that really packs a punch. In the fifth and final concert of the Liszt spotlight in 2023/24, he combines two visionary Romantic piano works: Franz Liszt’s Sonata in B Minor and Robert Schumann’s Fantasie in C. Each in its own way, these works break down musical boundaries and still get even the most experienced pianists sweating. With stamina and uncompromising expressiveness, and pushing the limits of the pianistically possible, Liszt and Schumann create large arcs of suspense in which they cover the entire spectrum of human emotion. So when he performs these two milestones of piano music in Hamburg, you can be sure that Illia Ovcharenko will be giving it his all.

Piano Recital

Sun, Dec 1, 2024, 19:00
Filharmonia Narodowa, Concert Hall (Warszawa)
Grigory Sokolov (Piano)
Grigory Sokolov, photo: Mary Slepkova / DG Grigory Sokolov has worked hard to secure privileges that few contemporary musicians can boast. He gives practically no interviews, rarely visits the recording studio, has performed solo for a number of years and compiles his own recital programmes, without particularly hurrying to announce them. He first sat at a piano at the age of five, almost 70 years ago. Ever since he has been reluctant to part with his beloved instrument, especially during his lengthy performances, giving endless encores (at times as long as a separate recital). Paradoxically, he is a rare example of an artist who communicates with the outside world almost exclusively through his performances, which force reviewers into extraordinary, at times quite humorous, verbal gymnastics in search of the right concepts to describe the artistry of his playing and the aura he creates around him. A voluminous anthology of surprising metaphors might be compiled from the texts on Sokolov’s playing, which may suggest that it is impossible to capture the personality of this remarkable pianist, let alone his interpretations, in words.

Lang Lang / Piano Recital

Wed, Mar 6, 2024, 20:00
Elbphilharmonie, Großer Saal (Hamburg)
Lang Lang (Piano)
An interviewer recently asked Lang Lang what his thoughts were about the word genius. The pianist answered that he thought nothing of it, adding that he was happy first and foremost to be a musician and to perform masterpieces from past and present for concert audiences. Lang Lang’s greatest aim in any concert, he went on, was to make a connection with the audience through music – to elicit emotions and to give something that people would remember. It’s nearly three years since Lang Lang gave his last solo recital in Hamburg. With a well-balanced programme of Gabriel Fauré, Robert Schumann and Frédéric Chopin, he will once again do the honours in the Grand Hall of the Elbphilharmonie.

Bruce Liu / Piano Recital

Wed, Mar 13, 2024, 19:30
Laeiszhalle, Großer Saal (Hamburg)
Bruce Liu (Piano)
Every season, the »Master Pianists« concert series presents a promising young talent who has the potential to become a star. The choice was not difficult this time round: since his explosive success at the 2021 Chopin Competition in Warsaw, 25-year-old Bruce Liu has been literally swamped with concert offers. An exclusive recording contract with Deutsche Grammophon in spring 2022 was followed in the summer by an unprecedented triumphal procession from one European festival to the next. Liu’s recital programmes last year always included compositions by Rameau, Ravel, Liszt and Chopin – music that Bruce Liu connects with his native Paris, and that will also be on his first album. »Music has a power that helps me put my emotional house in order« – this is how the Canadian pianist with Chinese roots describes the importance of piano playing in his life.
