Krystian ZIMERMAN Piano Recital
►[House Program] Krystian ZIMERMAN Piano Recital
Renowned for his triumph at the International Chopin Piano Competition, Polish piano master Krystian ZIMERMAN is celebrated for much more than his interpretations of Chopin. From Baroque to contemporary, classical to folk styles, whether in solo compositions, concertos, or chamber music, ZIMERMAN delivers incisive and unrestrained interpretations that convey both a profound understanding of various composers' musical languages and a unique, convincing personal touch.
Despite possessing a vast repertoire, ZIMERMAN meticulously selects piano works that resonate with his current state of mind, often opting not to announce his program in advance. In his quest for perfect performances, he not only hones his playing but also explores the instrument itself, designing custom piano keyboard mechanisms to suit the demands of different musical periods.
Audiences can appreciate the deep craftsmanship behind these words through the varied timbres and rich overtones produced by his unique keyboards. This is a beauty that recordings cannot fully capture, an experience that must be felt live.
For the first time, ZIMERMAN will perform at the Concert Hall of the National Kaohsiung Center for the Arts (Weiwuying), renowned for its optimal acoustics. He will airship his own piano to Taiwan, offering two different repertoires—this presents a rare and invaluable opportunity for music lovers to witness the pinnacle of piano artistry refined over decades.

Artists Introduction
Krystian ZIMERMAN
Krystian ZIMERMAN came to fame when he was awarded First Prize in the Chopin Competition at the age of 18. He has since enjoyed a world-class career working with the world's most prestigious orchestras and giving recitals in the top international concert halls.
Zimerman has collaborated with many pre-eminent musicians - chamber partners such as Gidon KREMER, Kyung-Wha CHUNG and Yehudi MENUHIN, and conductors such as Leonard BERNSTEIN, Herbert von KARAJAN, Seiji OZAWA, Riccardo MUTI, Lorin MAAZEL, André PREVIN, Pierre BOULEZ, Zubin MEHTA, Bernard HAITINK, Stanisław SKROWACZEWSKI and Sir Simon RATTLE.
ZIMERMAN transports his own piano for every recital, a practice which has made audiences more aware of the complexities and capabilities of the instrument. Performing on his own familiar instrument, combined with his piano-building expertise, helps him minimise any distractions from purely musical issues.
Due to ZIMERMAN's nearly obsessive dedication to music and his exquisite, meticulous interpretations, he continues to be widely loved by many music enthusiasts.
