»Jan Liseicki is the master of impetuousness« - thus the headline in the Hamburger Abendblatt after Jan Lisiecki’s recital in the last ProArte season. And it wasn’t the first great musical moment that the young Canadian-Polish pianist bestowed on a Hamburg audience in recent times. Hearing him play the Grieg Piano Concerto in 2021 reveals another facet of his artistic personality. Hard to believe that the composer himself was only 25 years old when he found his way to a style of his own with the concerto in A minor. The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra under its new music director Vasily Petrenko rounds off tonight’s programme with a piece of music that makes a strong emotional impact even without the ballet dancers: Prokofiev’s »Romeo and Juliet«.
