Nikolai Lugansky
—Wagner and Schumann
After his memorable appearance at the Palau de la Música Catalana during the 2015–16 season with the Gulbenkian Orchestra, Nikolai Lugansky returns to the modernist hall with a solo recital that reveals two complementary facets of Romanticism: the intimate and the tragic. The former emerges through Robert Schumann, with the tender Scenes from Childhood and the complex, nuanced Humoreske. The latter, through Wagnerian echoes in piano transcriptions: from Liszt’s Liebestod to a selection of scenes from Götterdämmerung arranged by Lugansky himself. A soul-stirring journey, led by a pianist who combines emotional depth, elegance, and a captivating interpretative power free of artifice.
