One of Koerner Hall’s most in demand recitalists, pianist Hélène Grimaud is a singular artist, an interpreter known for her fierce intelligence and sincere freedom of expression. A multi-faceted artist, her deep dedication to her musical career, both in performances and recordings, is reflected and reciprocally amplified by the scope and depth of her environmental, literary, and artistic interests. Her prodigious contribution to and impact on the world of classical music were recognised by the French government when she was admitted into the Ordre National de la Légion d’Honneur (France’s highest decoration) at the rank of Chevalier (Knight).
This recital marks Ms. Grimaud’s fourth performance in Koerner Hall.
