The 14th Rudolf Firkušný Piano Festival, held from 2 to 9 November 2026 under the auspices of Prague Spring, once again attracted exceptional audience interest.

Six world-class pianists appeared in Prague: the duo of Sir András Schiff and Evgeny Kissin, Bruce Liu, who thrilled festival audiences with his Czech debut, Marek Kozák, Anna Vinnitskaya and Grigory Sokolov. The festival once again demonstrated the appeal of its unique format, offering audiences the opportunity to experience the contrasting interpretative approaches of some of the world’s finest pianists within a remarkably short space of time. The festival also included a masterclass given by Sir András Schiff in collaboration with the Music and Dance Faculty of the Academy of Performing Arts in Prague, attended by more than 150 students from across the Czech Republic. From 2 to 10 November, videos published on Prague Spring’s Facebook, Instagram and YouTube accounts attracted over 200,000 views as of today. On Facebook alone, the videos accumulated a total viewing time of 20 days, 10 hours, 24 minutes and 12.22 seconds. 👍
