Daniil Trifonov, piano

Daniil Trifonov returns to Santa Barbara with the electrifying presence that has made him one of the most captivating pianists of his generation. Hailed by The New York Times as “a virtuoso with a demonstrably prizewinning technique,” Trifonov combines staggering technical command with poetic sensitivity. His performances feel both intimate and epic, going from whisper-soft at one moment to thunderously powerful the next. In this program, he takes audiences on a sweeping journey through two masterful sets of variations by Brahms, works that highlight his gift for shaping sound into story and revealing the emotional depths behind the notes.
