Grigory Sokolov
Russia’s master pianist
The leading pianist of our time returns to Bruges
‘A recital by Grigory Sokolov is like a vision of a lost age of Russian pianism,’ wrote The Guardian. Sokolov's interpretation unfolds so naturally that he captivates his audience from the very first notes. Anyone who has heard Sokolov play, will remember above all the naturalness of his interpretations, the essence of his musical philosophy. Whatever he plays, Sokolov always manages to take our breath away with his overwhelming mastery. Schumann will certainly be on his music stand. The rest of the programme is yet to be confirmed.
