Tune into Beethoven’s bright, tender, heroic, epic, witty, phenomenal pieces composed in his most desperate year, lifting our spirits in a year like this 2020- what a lesson!

Why not let dance illustrate a fairy tale we all know and see it through children’s eyes?

What a beautiful week, last week! Such a joy playing together again with an amazing violinist and musician Rainer Honeck, the concertmaster of the Vienna Philharmonic / Wiener Philharmoniker ! Dietmar Grieser reading about Schiele, and us performing Bach, Beethoven, Schubert and Shih, with Shih himself joining us on the stage! I am so grateful for those moments and the audience, too!

The art ,festival‘ in our garden continues - it was such joy performing with friends! Mozart‘s Piano Concerto KV 414 together with the Artis Quartett and Boris Eder reading Mozart’s Baesle-letters, ,Dissonanzen Quartett‘ and encore with Adrian Eröd singing his father‘s last opus made our audience more than happy! Looking forward to perforiming Schubert and Shih with Rainer Honeck next weekend!

The silence to which art was forced is not easy to accept. The audience as a counterpart in that we do is very much missed.

Prokofiev´s 3rd Piano Concerto is one of my favourite pieces of music that I love and feel very close to, and it is a piece of music I was lucky to work on together with Slava Rostropovich on several occasions. Slava kept quoting his friend Prokofiev thus opening up a box full of surprises, secrets and images for me.
