A nostalgic, slow-burn classical piano night.
A singular figure in the world of piano, David Fray is known for his structured musical thinking and a style of play that is as demanding as it is soulful.

During their time, many music lovers first discovered Wagner's operas through the spectacular piano transcriptions of Liszt. The program highlights the piano's reputation as an 'orchestra-instrument,' showcasing how these arrangements allowed symphonic works to reach audiences far beyond the major European capitals. It is a fascinating journey where the keyboard captures the weight of an orchestra, the intimacy of the human voice, and the brilliance of brass.
