Chamber music

Thursday 29 July 2021
7.30 pm, Lauenen Church

Born in 2007 into a family of musicians, Alexandra Dovgan does everything faster than anyone else, without however bearing the “stigma” of being a child prodigy. Grigory Sokolov, who has taken her under his wing, sums it up very well: “If her playing is indeed exceptional, nothing in her music indicates that it is a child playing, what we hear is the interpretation of a musician who is already an adult”. Taught since the age of five by the excellent pedagogue Mira Marchenko at the Central Music School of Moscow, she made her mark in 2018 by winning the Grand Prize in the Youth Competition created by Denis Matsuev. She has since performed on the main stage of the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, at the Théâtre des Champs-Elysées in Paris and at the Salzburg Festival.

This concert is being filmed and recorded and can be viewed at a later point on gstaaddigitalfestival.ch. The Gstaad Digital Festival newsletter will inform you about the details of its publication.
