One of the most sought-after pianists in the world for generations, Sir András Schiff makes a triumphant return to Kansas City. Sir András needs no introduction as a performer, conductor, pedagogue, and lecturer. Having collaborated with the world’s leading orchestras and conductors, he now focuses primarily on solo recitals, play-conducting appearances, and exclusive conducting projects. His Bach has become an annual highlight at BBC Proms and he is a musician whose refinement at the instrument is matched by the eloquence of his musical commentary. The evening’s selections will be announced directly from the stage – a unique and immediate experience inspired by the moment!
“Schiff stands with perhaps only a handful of pianists in his total achievement of the most severe beauty.” – The Philadelphia Inquirer
