T1648210229"A recital by Grigory Sokolov is like a vision of a lost age of Russian pianism" (The Guardian). The heir to such legendary artists as Emil Gilels and Sviatoslav Richter, Sokolov is a phenomenal artist, considered by some to be today’s greatest living pianist. His pianism transforms the instrument into a force of nature; he is capable of the most delicate filigree detail at one extreme, and overpowering strength and magnitude at the other. | |
