A Piano Recital by Kiryl Keduk. "New World's Classics: From Manhattan to Buenos Aires" 6 May 2026

In a rare series of piano recitals in Germany, Kissinger KlavierOlymp winner Kiryl Keduk—the competition's first-ever double laureate of both the First Prize and the Audience Award.This extraordinary journey through North and Latin America, titled "Classics from the New World," is a dynamic program that bridges the gap between the concert halls of New York and the vibrant streets of Latin America.

The voyage begins with the jazz-infused tones of George Gershwin and the Broadway flair of Leonard Bernstein. From there, the music shifts into the "noir" shadows and passionate Nuevo Tango of Astor Piazzolla's Buenos Aires. Culminating in Heitor Villa-Lobos' exotic sounds and Alberto Ginastera's raw Patagonian energy, this program celebrates the music that redefined the 20th century—an evening of rhythm, passion, and world-class pianism.

Critics describe Kiryl Keduk, a winner of numerous international competitions, as a "virtuoso with a poetic soul"—the ideal protagonist for this transcontinental journey. An internationally acclaimed artist, he has performed in prestigious venues such as the Berliner Philharmonie, the Pierre Boulez Saal, the Mariinsky Theatre, and Steinway Hall in New York. He is renowned for interpretations that seamlessly blend clarity, imagination, and technical brilliance.
