Piano Recital by Dénes Várjon A Zeneakadémia saját szervezésű programja

Dénes Várjon triumphed at the Géza Anda International Piano Competition in Zurich in 1991, and with this success he remains to this day the only Hungarian musician to have won the international contest organized every three years. In the wake of the Beethoven Sonata in A flat major, this pianist, who, as a student, teacher and concert performer, indeed organizer of a concert series, knows the Liszt Academy of Music inside out, brings to the podium two works by two composers of particular significance to him. During a whole series of concerts over the past year, Dénes Várjon – both as soloist and at the invitation of fellow chamber musicians – has reflected on the art of Robert Schumann, while the Sonata in B minor by Ferenc Liszt that winds up the concert plays a particularly important role in the current career of the musician. Dénes Várjon’s solo album Precipitando was released by record label ECM last year, the final track of which is the Liszt work of renowned complexity, and which was in fact at one time dedicated to Schumann.
