Orchestre Symphonique de Montréal / Daniil Trifonov / Rafael Payare by Schumann, Berlioz, dom. 24 nov 2024, De (2024/2024), Director Rafael Payare, Elbphilharmonie, Hamburgo, Alemania

Quiet, shy, introverted: Daniil Trifonov often seems to be from another world. And perhaps he reveals this world in every one of his concerts. Because when the native Russian now living in New York sits down at the piano, an incomparable magic unfolds, eliciting sounds and feelings from his instrument that seem to defy rational explanation. It is fitting that he plays Robert Schumann’s highly romantic piano concerto in this ProArte concert. With Hector Berlioz’ intoxicating Symphonie fantastique, the Orchestre symphonique de Montréal presents the instrumental counterpart to Schumann’s introverted soundscapes in the second half of the concert.
