Legendary Russian pianist, and one-time Chair of Piano at the Moscow Conservatory Mikhail Voskresensky, offers a piano masterclass for Western piano students.
The event is free and open to all for observation.
He is prizewinner of four international piano competitions (Schumann in Berlin, in Rio de Janeiro, George Enescu in Bucharest, and Van Cliburn in Fort Worth, Texas). In 1966 he was honoured with the Merited Artist of Russia award and in 1989, the People's Artist of Russia. Mikhail Voskresensky has extensive concert experience. He is the only pianist in Russia to perform all of Chopin's piano compositions during one concert season; this in 1982 / 83, in nine recitals in the Maly Hall of the Moscow Conservatoire. In 1957 the young pianist took part in the Prague Spring Festival where he performed European premiere of Shostakovich Second Piano concerto with the presence of Shostakovich himself.
Voskresensky will be giving a full concert at 7:30 p.m. on November 22. Tickets to the concert are available online.
