Programme Note
Siberian pianist Pavel Kolesnikov is one of classical music’s fastest-rising stars, firmly established in the leading venues of Europe and the USA. The great masters of Romantic music define this recital: Beethoven, Brahms and Tchaikovsky. Alongside are two pieces by the Baroque composer, Louis Couperin.
Following his Wigmore Hall debut in January 2014, The Telegraph gave the recital a rare five-star review and called it “one of the most memorable of such occasions London has witnessed in a while.”
