3pm – AUDITORIUM RAINIER III
CONCERT – LISZT
Franz Liszt is universally known as the greatest virtuoso of his time. However, his pianistic output is still not completely familiar and some of his works for piano and orchestra are even today virtually unknown to the music-loving public! Such is the case for the works featured in this concert – an unmissable chance to hear some rarely performed works. The young Hungarian conductor Gergely Madaras has all the intelligence and flair required for interpreting less-heard music – as does Czech pianist Ivo Kahánek, 2004 winner of the prestigious Prague Spring International Music Competition.
