Daniel Ciobanu Piano Recital
Venue: Baxter Concert Hall
Dates: Tuesday 22nd November 2022
Tickets available via Webtickets.
Piano prepared by IBSP: Steinway model D concert grand
The Romanian pianist will present an exciting programme of Khachaturian, Schumann, Jarrett, Liszt and more.
Ciobanu was born for music, but he is not a Romanian for nothing. Music is in his genes, and apart from technique, style and interpretation, it is about more substantial things, reflecting everything that can happen in the human mind. Bravura, ecstasy, anger, despair, playfulness, tenderness and orphaned abandonment were all to be heard in a breathtaking succession of directly appealing piano sounds.
The concert also includes a short in-conversation with Daniel where we can hear more about his music making and take questions from the audience.
