The Maison de la culture Claude-Léveillée welcomes the famous Quebec pianist Charles Richard-Hamelin for an intimate piano concert. Winner of the silver medal and the Krystian-Zimerman Prize at the 2015 Frédéric-Chopin International Piano Competition in Warsaw, Charles Richard-Hamelin is, at the age of only 30, a renowned pianist acclaimed around the world. During this concert, the audience will be able to enjoy works by Beethoven, Mendelssohn and then Chopin: a romantic repertoire that will undoubtedly reflect the best qualities of the performer. It should be noted here that Richard-Hamelin’s discography contains not only a recording of Chopin’s two piano concertos – dating from 2019, with the Orchestre symphonique de Montréal under the baton of his maestro, Kent Nagano – but also two discs dedicated solely to the piano repertoire of the same composer, both of which have been recognized and honoured by critics. So a promising program is in store for February 27, performed by one of our greatest pianists.
