Gilmore International Keyboard Festival- from classical to jazz, orchestra concerts to solo recitals, and chamber music to musical theatre, the festival continually achieves acclaim for presenting performances of the highest artistic calibre.

Tonight’s pianist Nikolai Lugansky will be performing Prokofiev’s Piano Sonata No.4 in C minor along followed by Saint-Saëns’ Piano Concerto No.2 in G minor with the Grand Rapids Symphony Orchestra under David Lockington. Lugansky is known for remarkable artistry and dazzling virtuosity.

“His performance blazes with conviction, a propulsion and energy finely complemented with an innate sense of poetry.” (Bryce Morrison, Gramophone, January 2014)
