Giorgi Gigashvili
For the young Georgian Giorgi Gigashvili, it is easy to concentrate on his career as a classical pianist while at the same time pursuing his passion for stylistically experimental and electronic music. He proved this two years ago when he was a guest at the Heidelberger Frühling Musikfestival with a classical piano recital and his band project "Georgia on my mind". In 2025, the talented free spirit returns to Heidelberg with a program that has it all: Starting with Ravel's mystical "Miroirs" cycle and the dreamlike and emotionally gripping "Postlude" by Josef Bardanashvili, Gigashvili ventures into the very physical Piano Sonata No. 6 by Galina Ustvolskaya and Prokofiev's first of his three so-called "War Sonatas".
