Programme & Tickets

Yulianna Avdeeva loves to communicate with her audience using the language of music. In her Heidelberg recital, she draws an arc from the "old" Bach to the two piano giants of the Romantic period, Frédéric Chopin and Franz Liszt. Avdeeva, who caused a sensation in 2010 when she became the first woman since the legendary Martha Argerich to win the prestigious Warsaw Chopin Competition, will play the Polish composer's fascinating and emotional Préludes op. 28. In Liszt's case, she will focus on pieces from his introverted late works, which for her open "a gateway to the music of the 20th century".
