What is Piano Nights?
Piano Nights is the perfect first introduction to The Concertgebouw—and perhaps the first of many special evenings. In an atmospherically lit hall, the piano takes center stage as two pianists perform their favorite repertoire, both together and separately. Think, for example, of the delightful romantic sounds of classical composers such as Chopin, Satie, or Debussy, as well as compelling works by neoclassical heroes like Ludovico Einaudi, Yann Tiersen, film music, and compositions by the pianists themselves. The pianists explain their musical selections on stage. Past editions of Piano Nights have featured some amazing pianists. You don’t need to know anything about classical music to visit the Concertgebouw. After the concert, a drink will be waiting for you, and you can stick around for a while to chat.
