A virtuoso of the keyboard and an interpreter of rare allure, Alexander Gadjiev continues his residency at Unione Musicale with a new and highly anticipated recital for the Turin audience.
Throughout his brilliant career, he has triumphed in some of the most prestigious international competitions: the Sydney International Piano Competition, the Monte-Carlo World Piano Masters, and the Chopin Competition in Warsaw, where in 2021 he was awarded Second Prize and the Special Krystian Zimerman Prize. In 2022, he received the Abbiati Prize from the Italian Music Critics Association as Best Soloist.
A featured artist in the most important concert seasons, Gadjiev is admired for the depth of his musical insight and the expressive power of his touch. The Times describes him as an artist who “enchants and astonishes,” while Süddeutsche Zeitung calls his sound “mysterious, introspective, yet radiant.” La Repubblica highlights his “rare combination of awareness, depth, and imagination.”
The evening’s program weaves together poetry and virtuosity: from Debussy’s beloved Suite bergamasque to three evocative pieces from Ravel’s Miroirs, two Nocturnes by Francesco Filidei, and the complete 24 Préludes, Op. 28 by Chopin—a towering masterpiece of the Romantic piano repertoire.
Gadjiev transforms every recital into a one-of-a-kind experience. A joy for the ears!
