Live at Toorak: Piano Gran Turismo, Andrey Gugnin

Concert or Performance

4 Jul 2024 Once Only Event

“Possessing an extraordinarily versatile and agile technique, pianist Andrey Gugnin is rapidly gaining international acclaim as a passionately virtuosic performer.” – Gramophone

First prize winner of the Sydney International piano competition, the Amsterdam-based superstar of the piano makes his much anticipated Australian return for a tour-de-force recital at the stunning Toorak Synagogue with the works of Rachmaninov.

Immerse yourself in the rugged passion, delicate poetry and broad emotional range of the music of Rachmaninov as Andrey takes you on a fast paced journey through all the preludes of the great master. Even the greatest virtuoso has to rise to their double challenges of athleticism and poetry in these works. Set in the beautiful archtiecture and golden acoustics of the Toorak synagogue, this will be an unforgettable evening!

Programme:

Rachmaninov: 24 preludes

In 2024, Andrey Gugnin won first place at the Classic Piano International Competition in Dubai, claiming the grand prize with a performance of Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 3. In 2020, the BBC Music Magazine Awards named Gugnin the winner of the Instrumental Award for his recording Shostakovich: 24 Preludes – Piano Sonatas One and Two (Hyperion). Since winning the prestigious Sydney International Piano Competition in 2016, Gugnin has gone from strength to strength in concerts and recordings which exhibit his impassioned interpretations.
