In only a few days, Christian Zacharias will embark on a month-long tour that will take him all across Europe. In selected cities, he will deliver virtuosic performances featuring an exquisite recital programme. His piano evenings have become more seldom since Christian Zacharias began conducting major orchestras making this opportunity of witnessing the pre-eminent pianist in a recital all the more special. Works by Baroque composers Scarlatti and Soler will be performed alongside Ravel’s Sonatine as well as a selection of Chopin’s scherzi and mazurkas. His profound understanding of music and charismatic stage presence make every one of his performances an unparalleled experience – in a very special, personable solo evening.
