Nézet-Séguin and Hamelin - Again Reunited

It has developed into a Lanaudière tradition: the summer reunion of two of Quebec’s most acclaimed musicians, to whom we owe some of the finest highlights of our Festival in recent years. This time around, they concentrate on not just one, but two outrageously demanding piano concertos by Franz Liszt, performed back-to-back by Marc-André Hamelin who revels in their challenges with uncanny ease. To complement these two flagships of pianistic virtuosity, the concert also offers the profound introspection and yearning Romanticism of Johannes Brahms.
