Theater und Philharmonie Essen, Alfried Krupp Saal (Essen)
Fazil Say, a genre-bending oriental storyteller and pianist, has captivated audiences and critics for almost 30 years. Known for his exceptional improvisational talent, unconventional interpretations, and blend of classical, jazz, and Turkish folk music, Say's performances are described as direct, open, and exciting. He will be performing with the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra under the direction of its new chief conductor, Kazuki Yamada, playing works by Berlioz and Ravel.
