Which pianist can claim to be admired by Martha Argerich and Alfred Brendel alike? At least one: Daniil Trifonov. The Russian, who lives in the USA, already enjoys almost legendary status in his mid-30s. The tremendous virtuosity with which he conjures up even the most demanding works on the keys and in the ears of his audience, the clarity and brilliance of his playing and the emotional depth of his interpretations captivate professionals and laymen, classical music connoisseurs and concert novices alike. In this ProArte concert, Trifonov and Nikolaj Szeps-Znaider explore the world of chamber music, from the passionate, romantic compositions of Clara and Robert Schumann to the concentrated miniatures of Anton Webern and Ludwig van Beethoven’s virtuoso Kreutzer Sonata. Truly legendary!
