Martin Oei: Scriabin, Prokofiev, Rachmaninoff, Balakirev and Stravinsky

About the Event

Pianist Martin Oei explores the rich realm of Russian piano music: from Balakirev's folklore and Scriabin's mysticism, to Rachmaninoff's melancholy, and Prokofiev's and Stravinsky's rhythm and theatricality. This voyage transitions from intimate lyricism to grand virtuoso theater, highlighting composers who individually formed and diverged from Russian identity, culminating in the creation of timeless music.
