FRANCESCO PIEMONTESI

Francesco performs at the Salzburg Festival on 10 and 11 August, joining Andrew Manze and the Mozarteum Orchestra Salzburg for their all-Mozart programme, playing Concerto for Piano and Orchestra in B flat, K.595. Francesco has performed with Andrew Manze a number of times this season, including his debut at the Boston Symphony Orchestra in April where the Boston Globe described his performance as “absolutely effortless.”

Later in the month Francesco performs a Schubert recital programme at The Tivoli Concert Hall in Copenhagen, the Gstaad Menuhin Festival in Gstaad and at the Schubertiade Schwarzenberg, which will be recorded for broadcast on ORF on 3 September.
