Young pianists from the N. A. Rimsky-Korsakov Music College will take the stage of the White Hall to share the music they live with every day. The program features compositions by Bach, Beethoven, Chopin, and other composers, with each performance reflecting the excitement, courage, and joy of their first serious appearances. In the White Hall of the library, those who value live sound and genuine emotions gather. The students of the piano department of the N. A. Rimsky-Korsakov Music College approach the piano as future professionals, for whom the stage gradually becomes part of their everyday life. The concert hall transforms into a space where one can witness the birth of a professional path. The program is built around compositions by Russian and foreign composers from different eras. In one evening, the strict line of the Baroque, the dramatic depth of Romanticism, and the bright virtuosic pages of late European tradition coexist. Pieces by Johann Sebastian Bach, Ludwig van Beethoven, Franz Liszt, Frédéric Chopin, Robert Schumann, Sergei Rachmaninoff, Mily Balakirev, and Konstantin Lyadov are performed. The audience views familiar repertoire through the eyes of young artists who are just beginning to build their own relationship with academic music. Each performance is a small story about how meaningful a few minutes on stage can be. For the students, it is a test of what has been learned in class, working with excitement and the audience's attention, and an opportunity to hear their own playing from the outside. For the audience, it is a rare experience to be close to the process of becoming a musician, to feel how the performing school gradually comes together, and which intonations and colors become key for the pianists. Sharing ideas on where to go in St. Petersburg this weekend.
