Exotic colours from Bartók and Rachmaninov’s virtuosic Third Piano Concerto.

French pianist Cédric Tiberghien returns to WASO in an exhilarating concert featuring Rachmaninov’s Third Piano Concerto. Fiendishly virtuosic and powerfully emotional, “Rach 3” is an all-time audience favourite.

Bartók wrote his folk-influenced Dance Suite to mark the 50th anniversary of the unification of the Hungarian cities of Buda and Pest. His Miraculous Mandarin Suite is one of the twentieth-century’s most dazzling scores, a dangerously seductive portrayal of lust and violence – dramatic, mysterious and sinister.

“Tiberghien’s technique is formidable, but it’s his intensity and poetic impulsiveness that catch the ear.” – Boston Globe
