Programme Note

Hailed by The Times as a ‘remarkable cellist’ and described by Gramophone as ‘sheer perfection’, Kian Soltani’s playing is characterised by a depth of expression, sense of individuality and technical mastery, alongside a charismatic stage presence and ability to create an immediate emotional connection with his audience. Pianist Aaron Pilsan was selected by the influential German magazine Fono Forum as 'Best Young Artist of the Year' in 2011 and subsequently chosen as a ‘Rising Star’ for the European Concert Hall Organization (ECHO) in 2014, which resulted in invitations to perform in many of Europe's most prestigious concert halls.
