When Mariam Batsashvili won the Franz Liszt Piano Competition in Utrecht ten years ago, it was the breakthrough for her international career. The young Georgian pianist's particular passion for Liszt has remained, and she naturally masters his works with stupendous technique, but also grasps them with particular sensitivity and endows them with a unique variety of expressive nuances. In her Heidelberg debut, Mariam Batsashvili juxtaposes her Hungarian idol with the romantic piano masters Schubert and Chopin. First, however, she will play a work by Mozart, who was admired by Liszt - his graceful and virtuoso last piano sonata from the revolutionary year 1789.
