Sergei Babayan has become a cult figure in the United States, where the Armenian-born pianist settled down in 1989. Now it is the Copenhagen citizens’ turn to enjoy an intimate encounter with this legendary virtuoso. It will be a moving evening with music from all corners of the great keyboard literature — including music by Rachmaninoff, which in Babayan’s interpretation got Le Figaros to declare the following about the pianist’s performance: “Unequalled touch, perfectly harmonious phrasing and breathtaking virtuosity.”
