The legendary pianist, Maria João Pires, returns to the Palau de la Música Catalana with Piano Concerto no. 2 by Chopin. She will perform alongside the Gulbenkian Symphony Orchestra and renowned conductor Tatsuya Shimono. Pires, a Portugese classical pianist, is considered to be one of the best interpreters of Mozart and Beethoven today.
The evening's program is completed with a contemporary work of chamber instrumentation, Deux portraits imaginaires, commissioned in 2013 by the Casa da Musica to the Portuguese composer Pedro Amaral, and La mer by Debussy, which the composer defined as "three symphonic sketches."
