Alexandre Kantorow owes part of his success to the intuition of René Martin, the dynamic creator of “La Folle Journée” in Nantes and the Festival de La Roque d’Anthéron. Born in 1997 into a family of musicians, Kantorow made his debut at the age of sixteen in Nantes and immediately impressed with his transcendental virtuosity. Six years later, in 2019, he achieved recognition with a historic victory (the first French winner) at the Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow. His preferred repertoire, as demonstrated by the program he brings to Bologna Festival, remains that of the late 19th century: Brahms, Liszt, and two forays into the early 20th century with Rachmaninov and Bartók.

English

Anche Alexandre Kantorow deve parte della sua fortuna al fiuto di René Martin, il vulcanico inventore de La folle journée di Nantes e del Festival de La Roque d’Anthéron. Kantorow, classe 1997, famiglia di musicisti, debutta a sedici anni a Nantes e desta subito grande impressione per il suo virtuosismo trascendentale. Sei anni dopo, nel 2019, la consacrazione con la vittoria (primo francese della storia) al Concorso Čajkovskij di Mosca. Il suo repertorio di elezione – come dimostra il programma che porta a Bologna Festival – rimane quello del secondo Ottocento: Brahms, Liszt e due incursioni nel primo Novecento con Rachmaninov e Bartók.
