Evgeny Kissin — Pianist

Program notes

A true star of the Russian piano, Evgeny Kissin is a regular guest of the Verbier Festival, where he has performed many times since the very first edition in 1994!

Following his extraordinary debuts as a pianist, while he was still a child (everyone can picture the 12 year-old boy playing Chopin with the Moscow Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Dimitri Kitaenko), Evgeny Kissin is considered one of the greatest pianists of our time. His perfect virtuosity, the lyricism of his interpretations but also his phenomenal charisma made him one of the most beloved artists of his generation.

This programme features works for solo piano by Haydn, Beethoven, Schubert and Liszt, some of his favourite composers.
