Interview
Valery Gergiev in conversation with Matthew Hunter
Hélène Grimaud and Valery Gergiev
This concert from February 2015 includes a meeting of two exceptional musicians: the French pianist Hélène Grimaud, known for her subtle and headstrong interpretations of a repertoire ranging from Bach to Bartók, and the sensitive eccentric, Valery Gergiev, who raised the venerable Mariinsky Theatre to new heights as its artistic director. The programme includes Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 4 and Prokofiev’s Sixth Symphony.
