ABOUT THIS EVENT
Visiting Artist Alexander Schimpf presents three important musical statements from the Vienna Classical era: the late, philosophical Rondo K. 511 by Mozart, the early Beethoven’s revolutionary Sonata op. 7, and Schubert’s both popular and enigmatic “Moments musicaux” which already mark a transition to the romantic style.
Following his success in renowned competitions in Bonn (German Music Competition 2008), Vienna (1st prize International Beethoven Competition 2009) and Cleveland/USA (1st prize Cleveland International Piano Competition 2011), German pianist Alexander Schimpf was able to establish himself as a sought after soloist on several continents. Invitations to solo recitals and performances with orchestras led him to perform in most major concert halls in Germany as well as in New York City, Boston, Washington D.C., Chicago, Paris, Vienna, St. Petersburg, Madrid, Beijing, and Taipei. In 2016 he was appointed professor for piano at the HMTM Hannover. Since then he was regularly invited to give masterclasses in Germany, France, Italy, the US, China, Taiwan, and Vietnam.
