Bruce Liu — Pianist

Program notes

The runaway winner of the ultra-prestigious 2021 Chopin International Piano Competition, Canadian pianist Bruce Liu brings his celebrated Chopin to the 2024 Verbier Festival! Liu performs two of the works that made him the judges' and audience's favorite in Warsaw: the formidable Piano Sonata No. 2 in B-flat minor, containing the famous Funeral March; and the sprightly Variations on Mozart's "Là ci darem la mano," guaranteed to leave you with a smile on your face. He also takes on a contemplative B-minor sonata by Haydn, plus some of the pieces by Rameau that have won him praise as a "masterly colorist … who [brings] a touching musical engagement" (Gramophone).
