Perhaps the most gifted classical pianist of our time, Evgeny Kissin takes centre stage with two rarely-performed jewels of the piano concerto repertoire.

Admired – even venerated – as the heir of the great Russian piano tradition, Kissin has an impressive list of awards, firsts and ‘youngest-evers’ to his name, including a Grammy for his recording of Prokofiev piano concertos with the Philharmonia.

His extraordinary programme brings together two bold, brilliant piano concertos by Prokofiev and Scriabin, alongside two dramatic Russian symphonic tone poems: Rachmaninov’s evocative The Rock, and Mussorgsky’s stormy A Night on the Bare Mountain which promises to thrill audiences with its wild and terrifying Witches’ Sabbath.

Music straight from Marianna Shirinyan's heart: Get to know our artist-in-residence better for a concert that comes all the way around the piano.
Marianna Shirinyan is the Aarhus Symphony Orchestra's Artist in Residence – and we're celebrating that with an entire concert featuring only piano. Because the piano can do it all: “The piano is a percussion instrument, it's a string instrument – ​​and it's a singing instrument; the piano can sing,” says Marianna Shirinyan. “As pianists, we are incredibly rich. A lifetime is not enough to play the music that has been written for our instrument.”

Since 2019, Evgeni Bozhanov has been a professor at the Folkwang University of the Arts in Essen - in addition to his international career as a pianist - where he looks after the keyboard stars of tomorrow. The Bulgarian pianist, who has won the international Frédéric Chopin Competition in Varna, among other things, is now putting on a duo evening with one of these promising talents, his master student Hao Tian. Hao Tian, ​​who was born in China in 2002, can already look back on a number of successes in international competitions himself and joined Evgeni Bozhanov's master class in Essen in 2022. For the Piano Extra II, he has chosen two touchstones of piano literature. Robert Schumann's "Carnaval", for example, which is one of the composer's most important piano cycles. After the turbulent scenes of a masked ball in Schumann's Opus 9, Alexander Scriabin's two-movement sonata takes us out to sea: in the first movement of the "Sonata-Fantaisie" composed in Genoa, the composer evokes a calm evening atmosphere with nighttime moonlight, after which it becomes stormy - in the ocean whipped up by wave-like triplets.

When Sergey Rachmaninov composed his evocative Études-Tableaux (‘Study-Pictures’) for piano, he kept his inspirations to himself, hoping that audiences would imagine their own pictures instead. Almost twenty years later, when Italian composer Ottorino Respighi set out to orchestrate a selection, Rachmaninov divulged some of the images that had come to mind when writing the pieces: a fair, the sea, children’s tales, and marches.

Was the world a better place in the Romantic era? Alexander Melnikov explores this question through his piano recital – following the theme of our Biennale entitled Paradise lost? On the threat to nature. With Schubert’s Wanderer Fantasy, Melnikov leads you through idyllic landscapes and man-made chasms, reveals the poetry of Schumann’s Waldszenen, and shows atmospheric images of nature in Franz Liszt’s piano works. The forest appears here as a place of retreat – from the self and from encroaching industrialisation. By contrast, Alexander Scriabin prophesies the destruction of the world in the grand conflagration of Vers la flamme.

When they married, he wrote for her the concerto we are performing for you in this concert, and we’ve invited her to be the soloist. Let the sparks fly and feel the love on Valentine’s Weekend!

He now returns with an evocative new program that features Tchaikovsky’s The Seasons; the Scherzo from Felix Mendelssohn’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, arranged by Rachmaninoff; and Scriabin’s poetic Fourth Piano Sonata.

What happens when you give Herbert Fritsch, a brilliant actor and director with a penchant for the wacky, a symphony concert to play? It's impossible to say for sure, but what we can say is that Fritsch is venturing into the concert field! Until recently, his turbulent and absurd Don Giovanni raged through the Behrenstraße as a libertine on the verge of a nervous breakdown, and if Wagner was to be at the Komische, then it was Fritsch. This season he's chasing the Florentine hat alongside Herbert Grönemeyer.

Together with General Music Director James Gaffigan, Fritsch presents György Ligeti's groundbreaking Poème symphonique for 100 metronomes and takes us into his very personal musical world, from Carl Maria von Weber to Iannis Xenakis, with all its rough edges. Don't worry, he won't sing. Well, probably not. We're excited!

It is a bit like a homecoming when the world-class pianist Haiou Zhang comes to Duisburg for a piano extra. One of his first concerts was not far from here, in Oberhausen - he was still a student at the time. Today, Haiou Zhang is praised in the specialist press for both his sharp analytical mind and the expressive intensity of his playing. He demonstrates his immense skill with a program that not only shows the most diverse facets of piano literature, but also exciting connections between eras. The program begins with "Chromatic Fantasy and Fugue", a fascinating work by Johann Sebastian Bach: without regard to conventions and full of excessive chromaticism. And he was in turn a role model for Claude Debussy, who refers to Johann Sebastian Bach's "Well-Tempered Clavier" in his Préludes, some of which Haiou Zhang plays. Or Ludwig van Beethoven, who initially followed in the footsteps of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart with his piano works, but then set out on his own shores and took the piano sonata genre into completely new dimensions. Haiou Zhang plays his piano recital on a special instrument, because "certain timbres and nuances that I want can only be realized on a Bechstein."

Schubert’s Impromptus are filled with lyricism and profound emotions ranging from anguish to serenity and everything in between. Schumann composed Fantasiestücke, op. 12 during a period when he was prevented from marrying the pianist Clara Wieck by her father. He was so distraught that he dedicated the eight short pieces to another woman, taunting the one he loved. As in Schubert’s Impromptus, the emotional palette is a wide-ranging one. Ravel’s Gaspard de la Nuit is one of the most ferociously difficult pieces of the piano repertoire. In fact, Ravel intended to make the final movement even more difficult than Balakirev’s Islamey, another work that puts pianists to the test. The three-movement work was inspired by three macabre poems by Aloysius Bertrand, and captures their dark spirit in endlessly innovative ways.
