“What was I most looking forward to? Everything! I’ve been waiting. It’s nice to be Czech again.<\/em>” These are the words of Rudolf Firku\u0161n\u00fd, which he uttered upon his return home after 44 long years in exile and are the motto of this year’s festival. Between 2 and 9 November, the festival will present five piano recitals, which this year are linked by very unconventional concert formats. Ticket sales start today and early-bird discounts of 20% are available until 3 June.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The festival will be opened by Sir Andr\u00e1s Schiff <\/strong>with a programme, which he will announce as a surprise at the concert itself. “I find it much more spontaneous to announce the programme on the spot and present the works in person,<\/em>” he explains. However, he revealed in advance that the programme will also include works by Czech composers. As part of his mentorship program, Schiff will present South Korean pianist Chloe Jiyeong Mun<\/strong> in a Nov. 3 concert featuring works by Chopin, Debussy, Haydn and Schubert. Alexander Melnikov<\/strong>‘s concert on 5 November promises a completely unique experience. Five instruments on one stage – from harpsichord to hammerklavier to modern piano – will take us on a musical journey through time: from Bach to Schnittke. Ivo Kah\u00e1nek and his students <\/strong>will pay tribute to this year’s jubilarian Smetana with a concert on 7 November, playing his notorious works in unexpected arrangements for two, four and eight hands. The festival will end on 9 November with a concert with French charm both in the notes and behind the keys: the works of Debussy will be performed by one of the most famous interpreters of French music, Jean-Efflam Bavouzet.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
