In 2011 the Berlin Philharmoniker and their musical director Sir Simon Rattle welcomed in the New Year with a gala concert entitled "Dances and Dreams." Spine-tingling and inspiring performances of music by Dvorak, Ravel, Richard Strauss, Stravinsky and Brahms are complemented by the extraordinary talent of multi-awarded Russian pianist Evgeny Kissin. Kissin's musicality, the depth and poetic quality of his interpretations, and his extraordinary virtuosity have placed him at the forefront of today's pianists, and his passionate performance of the renowned Piano Concerto in A minor by Edvard Grieg is mesmerising.
