Arsenii Moon by Bach, J. S., Mozart, Chopin, Vasilyevich Rachmaninoff, Mussorgsky, Frá (2024/2024), NDR Konzerthaus, Hannover, Germany

1st Prize, Ferruccio Busoni International Piano Competition 2023 He is a "sound magician", his "fine and brilliant technique full of nuances", his style "very personal" with a "unique sense of poetry in music". They are all right, these reviewers who praise Arsenii Moon for his artistic qualities. After all, the St. Petersburg native is already a household name in the piano world today, in his mid-20s. His latest coup: At the Busoni Competition in 2023, he not only won first prize and four special prizes, but also the Benedetti Michelangeli Prize, which is only awarded in the event of a unanimous jury decision - i.e. rather rarely, most recently almost 30 years ago. He is now presenting himself to the Hanover audience with a program that is as varied as it is demanding, from Bach to Chopin to Rachmaninoff.
