Winning a major music competition is, of course, an amazing achievement – but for some it can also become a burden. When Ray Chen won the Queen Elisabeth Competition in 2009, it wasn’t clear in which direction the pendulum would swing, but you might have been able to guess: things just went up and up for the likeable and highly talented Australian! Step by step and without haste – and that is perhaps the secret of his success – Chen climbed further up the career ladder. A while ago now he also found the perfect chamber music partner: Chen has an almost telepathic understanding with the French pianist Julien Quentin, who will be at his side for the recital concert in the Elbphilharmonie Recital Hall.
Please note: This event replaces the cancelled concert from 4 June 2020. Tickets purchased for the postponed concert are valid for this event.
