    Piano Summit with Víkingur Ólafsson

    This piano summit brings outstanding pianists to Schloss Elmau: Icelandic piano star Víkingur Ólafsson returns to Elmau with his new solo programme of Beethoven sonatas, as do the internationally acclaimed brother duo Lucas & Arthur Jussen with highlights from the literature for two pianos and four hands. The festival is rounded off by Dmitry Shishkin (silver medal winner of the Tchaikovsky Competition), who is highly praised by fellow pianists and critics alike, and Anna Vinnitskaya (1st prize at the Concours Reine Elisabeth), who regularly performs with orchestras such as the Berlin Philharmonic.
