Matsuev is known as the Siberian Bear. His skills as a virtuoso pianist and interpretive master have been tracked by world audiences since he was a boy. This powerful performer tackles programmatic pieces and concerti from Rachmaninov and Schumman at the Verbier Festival in Stockholm. This program is absolutely fitting for a pianist with such control and power. Along with an athletic and ear-pleasing main repertoire, Matsuev follows the Horowitz tradition of presenting an impressive collection of encores from Rossini, Tchaikowsky and even Duke Ellington.
