Murray Perahia, piano

Presented by the Vancouver Recital Society as part of the Classic Afternoons series at the Chan Centre

“I only play music I love…that way other people will learn to love it too.”

To hear Murray Perahia at the piano is to understand what he says. Perahia has become one of the most treasured musicians of our time. Every performance by Perahia is a revelation and a deeply moving experience.

“How to describe Murray Perahia’s qualities? Elegance, fluency, modesty, clarity – and an abiding sense of the poetic.” – The Independent, London
