“Breathtaking runs, exhilarating tempo, deepest intimacy – Evgeny Kissin dedicated his recital in the Golden Hall of the Musikverein Wien to Ludwig van Beethoven in his anniversary year. An evening of virtuoso superlatives! Almost half an hour of encores and never-ending applause.”

Wiener Zeitung 2020

“Irreconcilable opposites, emotional drive and constructive penetration of the material go hand in hand for Kissin – thanks to an unremittingly stupendous virtuosity.”
