Elisabeth Brauß / Klavierabend

In the organizer's words:

Scarlatti refined

Gramophone Magazine has praised Elisabeth Brauss for "the maturity and refinement of her sophisticated interpretations". Word of this quality spreads quickly - and the young pianist can already be heard on the world's great concert stages. For her appearance in the "Pianomania" series, Brauß has put together a carefully conceived program based around the composer Domenico Scarlatti. The starting point is this year's theme of "Pianomania": Scarlatti's filigree piano sonatas. She has made a selection from the approximately 550 surviving works, which she presents in small groups, creating a new dramaturgical context through this and flowing transitions. The program is complemented by works by Isaac Albéniz, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Robert Schumann and Olivier Messiaen - a delightful journey through different styles, epochs and sound worlds.
