Wigmore Hall 125: Alexandre Kantorow
As part of Wigmore Hall鈥檚 125th Anniversary Festival, French pianist Alexandre Kantorow plays Liszt, Chopin and Beethoven.
Gold Medal Tchaikovsky Competition winner Alexandre Kantorow performs a captivating programme of music, bridging Medtner's emotionally intense first sonata with the profound heights of Beethoven's final piano sonata. After his five-star 2025 麻豆社 Proms performance of Saint-Sa毛ns's Fifth Piano Concerto, The Times wrote of Kantorow's "buoyancy, delicacy and grace," and this evening's concert will surely be filled with these compelling qualities.
Broadcast live and presented by Sarah Walker.
