Mind in the wilderness
Description
Khatia Buniatishvili's playing has been described as having 'an aura of elegant solitude and even melancholy. It's a perfect characterization of the pianist with such a wide palette of expression. Khatia Buniatishvili commands a natural musicality. 'Force of nature', 'Spiritedness', or 'Infinite freedom' are frequently mentioned attributes on her interpretation. Buniatishvili's artistic approach to making music is undoubtedly associated with the Romantic tradition, always maintaining a fine balance between unhinged wildness and lyrical introspection. The repertoire comprises cheerful moments, melancholic passages and nocturne-like episodes: virtuously brought to life throughout a concert experience with a great quality of intimacy and generous ardour. Works by Bach, Tchaikovsky, Mendelssohn Bartholdy, Kancheli, Brahms, Ravel, Grieg, Händel, Liszt, Dvorák, Buniatishvili, Pärt, Ligeti.
