When you hear «wunderkind», you might think…

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, who composed his first symphony at age 8, or Clara Schumann, who toured Europe as a child piano virtuoso. This October, Tsotne Zedginidze will show you that young prodigies aren’t confined to the history books! For years, the fearless 17-year-old Georgian pianist has been tackling some of the most technically arduous works in the repertoire, and wrote his first piece at age 6. In this solo recital, let him dazzle you with a carefully curated programme of 19th- and early 20th-century masterpieces and a personal composition.
