Cal Performances Krystian Zimerman, piano

Polish pianist Krystian Zimerman is known for his technical polish, recently seen here as in a performance of Witold Lutoslawski’s 1987 Piano Concerto under the baton of Herbert Blomstedt. (Zomerman was the concerto’s dedicatee who premiered the work at the Salzburg Festival in 1988.) In this Cal Performances presentation Zimerman may or may not be touring with his own Hamburg Steinway piano. This allows him to do some degree of control over having to adjust to unfamiliar instruments, a regulation that may fare him well in Zellerbach Hall.
