About «résonances»

Chopin’s mazurkas with two world stars of the piano!

At the Philharmonie, this important section of Chopin’s output is explored by Grigory Sokolov in December 2024 and by Lang Lang in April 2025. Both combine their selection of mazurkas with a Schumann piano cycle. Lang Lang has chosen Kreisleriana – a cycle full of technical and expressive ambition. Its eight movement titles feature the word «very» six times and once even the term «extremely»!
