The most important pianist of our time returns to Bruges

Grigory Sokolov, considered by many to be the most important 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. Time after time, Sokolov displays his pianistic brilliance in sublime fashion. His interpretation unfolds so naturally that he captivates his audience from the very first notes. Sometimes tempered, sometimes razor sharp, sometimes refined: the impressive precision with which Sokolov caresses the keys is always of the highest order. Anyone who has ever heard him at work, will above all remember the wonderful ease of his interpretations, the core of his musical credo. Whatever his programme, Sokolov manages again and again to take our breath away with his astonishing playing. What he plans to perform in Bruges is still a surprise.
