About this concert
Recitals by pianist Sir András Schiff are always some of the most eagerly awaited events at Carnegie Hall, and he continues to find new ways to dazzle audiences. His well-publicized reliability for greatness—he “commands international respect as a paragon of refinement and musical integrity”—sometimes overshadows the fact that he “has an impish streak and likes to surprise” (The New York Times). Schiff’s recitals highlight both sides of this artistry, balancing encyclopedic mastery and interpretive curiosity to offer new perspective on the piano repertoire’s greatest works.

Sir András Schiff Biography

From Wikipedia

András Schiff (born December 21, 1953) is a Hungarian-born classical pianist. He was born in Budapest and began piano lessons at the age of 5 with Elisabeth Vadasz. Schiff studied at the Franz Liszt Academy of Music in Budapest, and later in London with George Malcolm. He emigrated from Hungary in 1979[1].

In 1999 he formed his own chamber orchestra, the "Cappella Andrea Barca" (the name being "Andras Schiff" in Italian). He has since appeared as a conductor with many major orchestras.

Schiff is one of the best-known living interpreters of J.S. Bach and Robert Schumann. He has recently begun to perform in recital and to record the complete piano sonatas of Beethoven.

Schiff has been a British citizen since 2001. He is married to the violinist Yuuko Shiokawa.
