"After the second encore, the hall is in a frenzy," the Abendblatt newspaper observed after Hayato Sumino's brilliant debut in the Recital Hall of the Elbphilharmonie. It was only natural that he would be invited back immediately afterward! And this time, the audience will be treated to a welcome in the Grand Hall of the Japanese YouTube star, who is causing a sensation there under the pseudonym "Cateen." On screen, he delights millions of viewers with his sensitive original compositions and spectacular arrangements of classics like Ravel's "Boléro." He only recently ventured into the "real world," onto international stages—with tremendous success. His first album for the Sony Classical label was also released shortly afterward.

"Some pianists are capable of setting their instrument ablaze from the very first note." This comment by a reviewer is, of course, not to be taken literally, but it nevertheless reveals much about Ilya Shmukler's pianistic temperament. "All or nothing" – with this motto, the Moscow native not only captured the jury of the renowned Concours Géza Anda 2024 by storm, but also the hearts of the audience. "Virtuoso," "brilliant," "a volcano," "an exceptional phenomenon"—these and similar descriptions can be read after his concerts. With a program ranging from Mozart to Chopin to Rachmaninoff, Ilya Shmukler will also be setting the sparks flying at ProArte.

Hailed as “one of the most probing, intelligent and accomplished artists of the new generation” (The New York Times), Igor Levit returns to Washington Performing Arts with a recital of monumental variation that challenges and inspires, featuring two impressive works rooted in an epic series of themes and variations. He brings his breathtaking technique to Beethoven’s Diabelli Variations—an epic set of variations requiring impressive technical and musical breadth—and Frederic Rzewski’s revolutionary The People United Will Never Be Defeated!, a tour de force of virtuosic brilliance and political fervor. Washington Performing Arts co-commissioned Rzewski’s work in 1976, commemorating the 200th anniversary of United States independence. Levit’s performances are acclaimed for their emotional depth and intellectual rigor, promising an unforgettable evening of musical mastery.

The consummate pianist Emanuel Ax brings a lifetime of authority to every musical setting—whether as a soloist with the world’s leading orchestras, chamber musician, Grammy-winning recording artist, or recitalist. With “bountiful imagination, delicacy when called for and thundering power” (The New York Times) he returns to Shriver Hall performing essential repertoire including Schubert's powerful Sonata in A minor and a dazzling array of Chopin.

This petite American soprano with an enormous voice is back in Frankfurt, where she thrilled audiences in recent seasons as Tchaikovsky's Iolanta and Cio-Cio-San in Madama Butterfly, for this recital. Recent opportunities for her versatile abilities to shine included appearances at the Aix-en-Provence Festival,  where she can be heard again soon in a Gluck double-bill as young Iphigenie in Aulis and the older Iphigenie auf Tauris. She sang the title role in Janáček's Katja Kabanová, one of her finest roles, at the Salzburg Festival (get the DVD), in Munich, Stuttgart, Rome, Geneva, Brno and Seattle. Get a copy of her debut CD:Canción amorosa - with Lieder from Spain. She's putting together a special programme for Frankfurt, inspired by Nadezhda von Meck (1831 - 1894), a Russian amateur musician and valued confidante and patron of Tchaikovsky and Debussy, who also influenced Janáček and Glière.

It is with Mozart at the center that the young, up-and-coming conductor Alessandro Bonato leads the South Jutland Symphony Orchestra and leads the audience through an evening filled with musical greatness and contrasts.


The concert program ranges from sunny Italian tones to divine melodies, with Mozart’s timeless masterpieces as the common thread. The evening features Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 21, with the winner of the prestigious Ferruccio Busoni Piano Competition, Arsenii Moon, who is currently recording on Deutsche Grammophon, as soloist. He also received the prestigious Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli Prize, which is only awarded by unanimous decision of the jury – an honor that had not been awarded for almost three decades. The concert culminates with Mozart’s magnificent Symphony No. 41, the “Jupiter Symphony”, one of his last works, the epic finale of which, with its impressive fugue, stands as an incomparable and iconic musical masterpiece.
