Yulianna Avdeeva
Beethoven entre Bach et Ravel
Yulianna Avdeeva connects Bach, Beethoven and Ravel.
Yulianna Avdeeva takes to the stage at DE SINGEL for the first time. Why she is one of today’s most sought-after pianists is immediately apparent. With a blend of power, precision, and imagination, she effortlessly moves between Bach and Beethoven.
After the break, the mood shifts. The dramatic intensity of Beethoven’s Appassionata gives way to refinement and tonal nuance in Pavane pour une infante défunte, the elegant Valses nobles et sentimentales, and the sizzling, almost orchestral richness of Ravel’s La Valse. Avdeeva gives each piece a distinct character: clear and architectural with Bach, charged and dramatic with Beethoven, and sensual and colourful with Ravel. The resulting concert seamlessly blends contrast and cohesion.
