Valentina Lisitsa: Live at the Royal Albert Hall

August 2012 •English

This Royal Albert Hall Concert, presented now on DVD, was also available online through live streaming.

Valentina has scaled the heights of technique, knocking off 'impossible' Liszt pieces like a stroll in the park. She melds with the piano with such assured ease that she can milk every piece for musical content and subtlety, reminding us of the great Hoffman, who also loved to play each piece a little differently every time, tapping deeply into the inexhaustible potential of a great composition, perpetually finding fresh ideas and magnificent new interpretations.
