Jan Lisiecki / Academy of St Martin in the Fields / Tomo Keller
Elbphilharmonie, Großer Saal (Hamburg)
It is these marvelous projects that characterise the programme of the ProArte subscription »International Soloists«: Jan Lisiecki, who, together with the Academy of St Martin in the Fields, would like to perform all five Beethoven piano concertos and the Triple Concerto on three evenings and will, of course, have the Elbphilharmonie at his disposal. The Beethoven programme kicks off with the contrasting Piano Concertos Nos. 1 and 3 in C major and C minor, which the Canadian-Polish pianist already performed brilliantly alongside the Academy in 2018 when he spontaneously stepped in for Murray Perahia, who was ill. Deutsche Grammophon decided to turn the live recording into an album – and the rest is history. And with this season also part of ProArte history!
