Grigory Sokolov is postponed to 13 September 2021.

 

The Russian pianist Grigory Sokolov is one of those artists with an impressive presence and extremely pure technique. Whatever he plays, he always manages to recreate an atmosphere which leaves audiences speechless, thanks to a staggering technical mastery and an exceptional feel for music. With his refined, gentle approach, he displays evidence of an expressive strength which stirs the listener to his very soul in the most lyrical moments. He creates a musical universe which physically invades the room. Sokolov is a magician, an enchanter, a giant of the piano, who allows each note to sound in precisely the right way.
