Evgeny Kissin
In June 2023, the Russian star pianist Evgeny Kissin played for a sell-out audience in Amare and caused the hearts of all piano lovers to beat faster. In June 2025 he will return to the Netherlands for a single concert, exclusively in Amare.
As Wenneke Savenije wrote a few years ago, “Evgeny Kissin is unrivalled as soloist”. She described her experience of a Kissin recital as follows: “The unique intensity with which the former prodigy Evgeny Kissin managed to elicit magisterial sounds from the grand piano at the final concert was literally unheard of and, as far as I am concerned, the summit of all summits. What architectural clarity and flawless pianistic aptitude! What incredible emotional intensity, musical depth and spiritual veracity resounded in every note he played.”
