“Il faut chanter avec les doigts!” is a statement by Chopin, which could be translated as “you must sing with your fingers”. Chopin’s music comes alive when you play as if singing. Austrian pianist and finalist in last year’s Chopin Competition for historical keyboard instruments has really internalized this sensitive approach and enchants with the beauty of his Chopin performances. Chopin loved the grand pianos made by Pleyel. The Schloss Weißenbrunn Foundation in its collection boasts an instrument built by this Paris company in 1836. Chopin described Pleyel grand pianos as the “non plus ultra”. So this evening with Chopin, Nöbauer and Pleyel promises to be a very special experience. And since the evening will then continue with French food and drink, we ae sure that Chopin would have enjoyed it, too.
