Zitong Wang/Chopin Recital

During the 19th Chopin Competition, we were impressed by her musical sensitivity and expressive personality. Zitong Wang won the third prize and the Krystian Zimerman Award for the best performance of a sonata. Today he tours all over the world and with his play moves the audience in the most remote corners of the globe. A year after participating in the competition, how does he interpret the works of the great Polish romantic? We will find out soon in NOSPR. This is a unique opportunity to hear live in Katowice this one of the most interesting pianists of the young generation.
