Winter dreams – Slavic Soul IV
With the kind support of the French Embassy in Athens and the French Institute, Greece
Wed. 10 December 2014 20:00
Megaron – The Athens Concert Hall
Alexandra Triandi Hall
One of the greatest pianists of our age, celebrated for his interpretations of the contemporary repertoire and beyond, France's Pierre-Laurent Aimard joins forces with the Athens State Orchestra to perform Antonín Dvorák's charming piano concerto. And while the Czech composer's fellow-countryman, Bedrich Smetana, captures the flow of the Moldau with grace and sensitivity in Vltava, the harsh imagery of Tchaikovsky's First Symphony transports us to the harsh Russian winter.
