   Celebrity Piano Recital

   "One of the most extraordinary musicians of any age group that I have had the fortune to be associated with" - Sir Simon Rattle

   Lars Vogt has rapidly established himself as one of the leading pianists of his generation. Born in the German town of Düren in 1970, he first came to public attention in his prize-winning performance at the 1990 Leeds International Piano Competition. He has since gone on to give major concerto and recital performances throughout Europe, Asia, Australia and North and South America.

   Vogt will be exhibiting his dazzling skills in a hugely varied programme full of playfulness, wit, poignancy and luminosity that showcases virtuosity throughout.

   To sample what awaits, click here to watch Lars Vogt performing Schubert's Sonata in G at the Verbier Festival last year.

   "Soloist Lars Vogt has a big-boned quality that gave the heroic moments a properly Olympian assurance, and a starry immensity to the reflective ones, even when the actual sound came close to disappearing."  - The Telegraph
