Tsotne Zedginidze – composition, piano

 

Coproduction: Flagey, Klarafestival

In the context of Piknik 25/26

He began playing the piano at the age of five and composing a year later. Now sixteen, Georgian Tsotne Zedginidze is described as ‘the Mozart of the 21st century’. He astounds listeners around the world with romantic, 20th- and 21st-century repertoire and his own compositions, which reflect his love of opera. His Wagner Paraphrase reinterprets Richard Wagner's monumental Ring des Nibelungen as a virtuoso solo work for piano. Zedginidze presents this indispensable tour de force alongside Robert Schumann's kaleidoscopic Davidsbündlertänze.
