Peter Rosel Piano Recital
Date: July 8 — 7:30 pm
Venue: National Centre for the Performing Arts
Born in Dresden as the son of a conductor and a singer, Peter Rosel had his first piano lessons at the age of six. He completed a five-year study at the Tchaikovsky Conservatory in Moscow with Dmitri Bashkirov and Lev Oborin. At that time, he became not only the first German prize winner at the Moscow Tchaikovsky Competition and the Montreal Piano Competition, but he also started an international career, which has taken him to the music centers of all continents. In 2011, Peter Rosel continued his recital series performing all 32 Ludwig van Beethoven sonatas within a period of four years. The artist presented this series in Japan, Germany and Switzerland, and was enthusiastically acclaimed at the Prague Spring Festival.
