KEVIN KENNER and the PIAZZOFORTE STRING QUINTET

Kevin Kenner won the International Chopin Competition in Warsaw and received the Bronze Medal at the Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow (1990). Mr. Kenner has since performed  as soloist with world-class orchestras including the Hallé Orchestra, the BBC Symphony Orchestra, the Warsaw Philharmonic, the Belgian Radio and Television Philharmonic Brussels, the NHK Symphony of Japan, as well as the principal US orchestras. He records regularly for the BBC in England.

 

 “…pianist not just with brilliant technique but also fine judgment, courage and depth of feeling...” The Independent ( London )

 

Grzegorz Frankowski, double bass player and leader of Piazzoforte, is the author of many original musical projects exploring tango, jazz, and classical music. Piazzoforte received a Polish Grammy Fryderyk 2006 as the best recording of chamber music.

 

 “This emotionally charged music leaves no heart cold. It tells of love and passion, of life and death. Its sound is exotic and seductive, wild and frolicsome, sometimes full of controlled passion, other times – unleashed.” Munsterland Zeitung about Piazzoforte’s performance

 

Music students attending the concert are invited to participate in a written contest. For more information please check the CSA’s web site: www.chopinatlanta.org
