Vondracek and Rachmaninoff – two extraordinary personalities on one stage. Resident soloist of the Janáček Philharmonic Ostrava and pianist Lukáš Vondráček will perform the most popular of Rachmaninoff’s four concerts – Piano Concerto No. 2. This Russian author is always played by Lukáš Vondráček at the busiest possible tempo, he is able to play both fortissimo and pianissimo in one second and puts absolute emotions into his play. Rachmaninoff, played by Lukáš Vondráček, sounds like no one else will play it.
