Evgeny Kissin's musicality, the depth and poetic quality of his interpretations, and his extraordinary virtuosity have earned him the veneration and admiration deserved only by one of the most gifted classical pianists of his generation. He is internationally renowned and hugely admired for his interpretations of the works of the classical and Romantic repertoire of Beethoven, Schubert, Chopin, Liszt, Schumann, Brahms, Rachmaninov and Prokofiev.
He is in demand the world over, and has appeared with many of the world's great conductors, as well as all the great orchestras of the world. In Memoirs and Reflections, the intensity of Kissin's thinking and of his very being shines through, which displays his astonishing memory, fondness for his family and teachers, and an exalted sense of self that is essentially Russian.

À propos de l'auteur

Biographie d'Evgeny Kissin

Evgeny Kissin was born in Moscow in 1971 and began to play by ear and improvise on the piano at the age of two. Aged six, he entered a special school for gifted children, the Gnessin School of Music, where he was a student of Anna Pavlovna Kantor. He made his concert debut playing Mozart's Piano Concerto K.466 as a ten-year-old, and gave his first solo recital one year later. Kissin first performed outside Russia in 1985, and from then he has been showered with awards from around the world, including the Crystal Prize of the Osaka Symphony Hall for his first performance in Japan in 1987, the Musician of the Year Prize from the Chigiana Academy in Siena, Italy in 1991, and Musical America's youngest Instrumentalist of the Year in 1995.
He was the first pianist to be invited to give a recital at the BBC Proms, and the first concerto soloist ever to be invited to play in the Proms opening concert. He has been a British citizen since 2002, and an Israeli citizen since 2013.
