Some of the artists also appeared in concerts on period instruments. Or what about Chopin\u2019s second piano concerto in a version for guitar and orchestra?<\/p>\n<h2>Piano Street\u2019s Recommended Concert Picks<\/h2>\n<p>Many of the festival&#8217;s concerts are available to watch on the Chopin Institute&#8217;s YouTube channel. Here is a selection of recommended listening.<\/p>\n<h3>A Liszt and Chopin Recital<\/h3>\n<p>On a very short notice eighteen year old Kevin Chen stood in for an indisposed Benjamin Grosvenor. Chen had three days to prepare for this. Such undertakings should be noticed and Chen did an uplifting and impressive performance with works by Liszt: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pianostreet.com\/liszt-sheet-music\/annees-de-pelerinage-2-italy\/\">Ann\u00e9es de p\u00e8lerinage, Second year<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pianostreet.com\/liszt-sheet-music\/annees-de-pelerinage-2-italy\/sonetto-104-5.htm\">Sonetto 104 del Petrarca, S. 161 no. 5, <\/a>and Chopin: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pianostreet.com\/chopin-sheet-music\/ballades\/ballade-4-op-52-f-minor.htm\">Ballade in F-minor, Op. 52<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pianostreet.com\/chopin-sheet-music\/etudes\/\">12 Etudes Op. 25<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Kevin Chen | 19.

A varied program starting off with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pianostreet.com\/chopin-sheet-music\/preludes\/prelude-op-45-c-sharp-minor.htm\">Chopin\u2019s 25th Prelude Op. 45<\/a>, a piece the composer was very satisfied with. We might hear Chopin&#8217;s ideas through the modulations and sonorities on an instrument of the master\u2019s choice. The program offered the audience to hear works by composers Chopin cherished. We know he played Bach on a daily basis, but did you know that he introduced Schubert to the Parisian audience? We also know that this composer\u2019s German Dances inspired Chopin on his rich Mazurka explorations. Mozart, Beethoven and Schubert Sonatas can be heard along with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pianostreet.com\/brahms-sheet-music\/piano-studies\/study-after-chaconne-bach-for-left-5.htm\">Bach\/Brahms Chaconne<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pianostreet.com\/chopin-sheet-music\/ballades\/ballade-3-op-47-a-flat-major.htm\">Chopin\u2019s Third Ballade<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Tomasz Ritter | 19.

He offered a whole evening on Brahms\u2019 and Chopin\u2019s music on an Ehrbar grand piano from 1878. The amazing timbres of Brahms\u2019 late Intermezzi reaches a new dimension of colours when performed in such a manner with the pianist\u2019s vast knowledge of sound and architecture. A student of Neuhaus, Lubimovs concert is a treat to any pianist interested in this repertoire even on a modern piano. Program: Brahms: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pianostreet.com\/brahms-sheet-music\/two-rhapsodies\/\">Two Rhapsodies, Op. 79<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pianostreet.com\/brahms-sheet-music\/fantasies\/\">Seven Fantasies, Op. 116<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pianostreet.com\/brahms-sheet-music\/six-pieces\/\">Six Pieces for Piano, Op. 118<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pianostreet.com\/brahms-sheet-music\/three-intermezzi\/\">Three Intermezzi, Op. 117<\/a>, Chopin: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pianostreet.com\/chopin-sheet-music\/barcarolle-op-60-f-sharp-major.htm\">Barcarolle in F sharp major, Op. 60<\/a><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Alexei Lubimov | 19. Chopin and his Europe International Music Festival\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/97khHbNidO4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>A Teacher and Student Setup<\/h3>\n<p>Teacher and student Dang Thai Son and Bruce Liu with London Mozart Players gave a delightful performance of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pianostreet.com\/mozart-sheet-music\/concertos\/mozart-concerto-10-k-365.htm\">Mozart\u2019s Concerto for two pianos in E-flat major<\/a>. Originally a concerto written for himself and his sister Nannerl, the work evidently was performed in concert with Mozart and his student. A happy, playful and energetic piece making the most of two pianos competing and sharing in conversation. Son and Liu generously provided two encores; Chopin Variations in D major and Brahms\u2019 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pianostreet.com\/brahms-sheet-music\/waltzes-four-hands\/waltz-op-39-15-a-major.htm\">Waltz No. 15 in A-major<\/a>. Playfulness was also delivered by Lukas Geniusas in Haydn\u2019s G-major Concerto and the rhetoric closeness between \u201cPapa Haydn\u201d and his student and friend Mozart is both clear and obvious.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=zPR8SmXBc64 <\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>Grieg\u2019s A-minor in its Premiere Dress<\/h3>\n<p>The ever popular <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pianostreet.com\/grieg-sheet-music\/piano-concerto-op-16-a-minor.htm\">Grieg Concerto <\/a>was offered by Aleksandra Swigut with (OH!) Orchestra on a period instrument dated mid-19th century. It was striking realizing that one never really has listened to this concerto premiered in 1869 (with Neupert on A. Rubinstein\u2019s lent grand piano) on an instrument from that era. Our ears are filled with modern grand pianos\u2019 sounds and timbres. The performance could therefor offer a hint of how it actually sounded on its premiere in Copenhagen. On that same concert we can also enjoy Mozart\u2019s 21st Piano Concerto (aka \u201cElvira Madigan\u201d) in a fine performance by Pedro L\u00f3pez Salas.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"\u015awigut, Salas, {OH!} Orkiestra | 19.

For this reason, aside from works by Chopin himself, the repertoire played at the Festival also includes the music that inspired him, works by composers prior to and younger than him, and the reception of Chopin\u2019s \u0153uvre in music contemporary to us.<\/p>\n<h3>Contemporary and historical instruments<\/h3>\n<p>The world of authentic sound and \u2018historically informed\u2019 musical interpretation is encouraged and promoted by The Chopin Institute, not least by its <a href=\"https:\/\/chopin2020.pl\/en\/news\/article\/553\/2nd-international-chopin-piano-competition-on-period-instruments\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">international Chopin competition for period instruments <\/a>(taking place this fall).
