Concert
Driven by his ever-inspiring pianistic mastery, Charles Richard-Hamelin invites you to a recital that promises to be unforgettable. His program, both diverse and beautifully contrasted, will take you on a journey through the poetry of Debussy, the clarity of Ravel, the sparkling elegance of Poulenc, and the virtuosic intensity of Chopin.
From the mesmerizing tenderness of Debussy’s Clair de Lune to the refined lines of Ravel’s Sonatine, and the fiery energy of Chopin’s Scherzos, each piece is infused with striking colors and deep emotion. A rare opportunity to hear an exceptional artist bring these iconic works to life with unparalleled sensitivity and depth.
