Daniil Trifonov Piano Recital

Date: Sept 23 - 7:30 pm

Venue: National Center for the Performing Arts

Price: 80-580 yuan

Moments before Daniil Trifonov performs, profound silence invariably takes possession of his audience. Its intensity depends not on concert hall convention; rather, it arises naturally from the Russian pianist's power to transcend the mundane and communicate music's timeless capacity to bind communities together. The Washington Post wrote of the "visceral experience" of hearing Trifonov's playing; the S üddeutsche Zeitung, meanwhile, described his debut concert at last year's Verbier Festival as "a real culture shock", such was its blend of poetic insight, wit, nuance and inventive brilliance.
