Sound fireworks times four
4 virtuosos, 8 hands and 352 keys - these are the objective framework data when the Gershwin Piano Quartet enters the stage. That alone is amazing enough and a guarantee for a concert experience that is anything but ordinary. When do four grand pianos stand on the podium and four pianists at the same time provide proof of the proverbial whole, which is clearly more than the sum of its parts. This formation regularly promises a pianistic sound bath. The four virtuosos of the Gershwin Piano Quartet have dedicated themselves above all to George Gershwin and his exciting tightrope walk between concert hall and jazz cellar. But they also like to test out what kind of sound fireworks can be elicited from their four instruments with arrangements from other times and styles. With Gershwin, Bernstein and Co. they go on a joyful journey into the colorful gray areas between E and U, classical and jazz, breathtaking keyboard art and sound-sensual entertainment.
