Gábor Farkas, one of the finest pianists of his generation, gives a solo recital in New York

Consulate General of Hungary

Gábor Farkas, concert pianist, Steinway artist, Head of Piano Faculty at Franz Liszt Academy of Music in Budapest, and recipient of the Franz Liszt Award 2012, is beyond doubt one of the finest pianists of his generation. His highly personal performing style has earned him the name „the poet of the piano” – a unique title coined by world famous pianist and conductor Tamás Vásáry. Farkas is well known for his huge repertoire, with an emphasis on the romantic period, and his powerful virtuoso technique combined with a soothing bel canto tone, a rare gift by which he makes his instrument sing like no one else can among his peers.I﻿n the framework of the II. New York Franz Liszt International Piano Competition and Festival, Farkas does not only serve as one of the competition's distinguished jury members but also gives a solo piano recital at the Consulate General of Hungary in New York on October 6, 2022 at 7PM.P﻿rogramS﻿CHUBERT Impromtu Op. 90 No. 2 in E-flat MajorS﻿CHUBERT Impromtu Op. 90 No. 4 in A-flat MajorS﻿CHUBERT-LISZT Soirées de Vienne No. 7L﻿ISZT Deuxième Année de Pèlerinage: Italie - Sposalizio L﻿ISZT Deuxième Année de Pèlerinage: Italie - Il PenserosoL﻿ISZT Les jeux d'eau à la Villa d'Este (The Fountains of the Villa d'Este)L﻿ISZT Hungarian Rhapsody No. 12.Please note, for this event only a limited number of tickets are available!C﻿OVID-19 noticeTo attend the event, proof of vaccination is required; wearing a mask is recommended.
