Cédric Tiberghien piano  

Wednesday, November 19, 2008   7:30 pm Merrill Auditorium, Portland, Maine
Just thirty years old, Cédric Tiberghien has already triumphed at the world’s great concert halls, with performances at London’s Wigmore Hall, Amsterdam’s Concertgebouw, and Tokyo’s Suntory Hall. One of the most exciting artists to emerge from France in recent years, Tiberghien is loved and admired for his expressiveness, his romantic temperament, and his remarkable range of material and playing styles. The pianist made his New York debut at Carnegie Hall only this February. The program includes Bartók, Brahms, and Chopin.
