Grigory Sokolov

Same time, next year?
For some years now, piano giant Grigory Solokov has made it an annual tradition to visit the Philharmonie at the start of the festive season. Widely regarded as one of the greatest living pianists of our time, he will perform – among others – Franz Schubert’s final work for piano, Sonata N˚ 21. Full of heartbreaking tenderness and unexpected turmoil, this masterpiece captures perfectly the emotional struggle Schubert no doubt felt as he faced his untimely fate.

The music: Franz Schubert: Sonate D 960; Johannes Brahms: Klaviersonate N° 3
The artists: Grigory Sokolov (piano)
