To conclude her ProArte residency in the 2025/26 season, star pianist Khatia Buniatishvili invites you to a very special concert experience at the Elbphilharmonie: together with artistic friends and companions, she takes her audience on a journey to her adopted home of Paris. In a dazzling array of dance, song, recitation and pianistic virtuosity, she explores the rich soundscape of the »City of Light« and once again captivates her audience with a deeply personal programme. Accompanying her on this journey are television stars Barbara Schöneberger and Sebastian Koch, ballet dancer Hugo Marchand and mezzo-soprano Axelle Saint-Cirel, whose name has been on everyone’s lips since her brilliant performance at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris. Bon voyage!
