“Possessing an extraordinarily versatile and agile technique, pianist Andrey Gugnin is rapidly gaining international acclaim as a passionately virtuosic performer.” – Gramophone
1st prize winner of the Sydney International piano competition among many others, the Amsterdam-based superstar of the piano makes his much anticipated Australian return for a tour-de-force recital at the stunning Rippon Lea Estate Ballroom with the works of Rachmaninov.
Immerse yourself in the rugged passion, delicate poetry and broad emotional range of the music of Rachmaninov as Andrey takes you on a fast paced journey through all the preludes of the great master. Even the greatest virtuoso has to rise to their double challenges of athleticism and poetry in these works. Set in the beautiful architecture of the Rippon Lea Estate Ballroom, this will be an unforgettable evening!
Gates open at 6.00pm with a cash bar and snacks available from 6.15pm in the Ballroom.
Programme:
Rachmaninov: 24 preludes
