Discover Talent: Ilya Shmukler / Piano Recital
Saturday, 10/01/2026 / 07:30 PM - 09:35 PM / Elbphilharmonie (Kleiner Saal)
A music critic once said, »There are pianists who can set a piano alight as soon as they start playing.« Of course, this was not meant literally. However, it does say a lot about Ilya Shmukler and the firey, energetic intensity of his pianistic style. With his burn-or-bust approach, the native Muscovite took the 2024 jury of the prestigious Concours Géza Anda Piano Competition by storm and ignited the hearts of everyone lucky enough to be there. Reviews of his concerts are full of words such as »virtuosic«, »vibrant«, »explosive« and »outstanding«. In this ProArte concert, the sparks will fly as Shmukler performs Mozart, Chopin and Rachmaninov and leaves you thirsty for more.
