However, this unfortunate development has also brought an exceptional opportunity: the chance to hear Francesco Piemontesi, one of the most highly regarded pianists on the international stage, perform in Sacile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The availability of the Swiss pianist is all the more significant given his busy international schedule. In recent days, Piemontesi has been touring with the BBC Symphony Orchestra under Sakari Oramo, performing concertos by Brahms and Dvo\u0159\u00e1k in Katowice, Warsaw and Varna. In the coming weeks, he will join the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra under Daniel Harding for Schoenberg\u2019s Piano Concerto, followed by performances with the Oslo Philharmonic conducted by Manfred Honeck. He will round off the year with the NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchestra under Fabio Luisi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite the change of artist, the concert will retain one of its original aims: to explore Franz Schubert\u2019s late style, the subject of the pre-concert listening guide presented by Roberto Calabretto. While the Sonata in B-flat major D. 960, originally scheduled to be performed by Richard Goode, represents one of the culminating achievements of the Viennese composer\u2019s creative life, the Sonata in G major Op. 78, D. 894, known as the Fantasia, with which Francesco Piemontesi will open his recital, offers an equally valuable insight into Schubert\u2019s mature style, characterised by expressive intimacy, formal freedom and contemplative depth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The pianist will then take the audience into another musical and geographical world, one particularly close to his artistic sensibility: Franz Liszt\u2019s Ann\u00e9es de p\u00e8lerinage, Premi\u00e8re ann\u00e9e: Suisse, a collection in which the landscapes of Switzerland are transformed into music through a series of richly evocative compositions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tickets will be available to purchase online from Monday 19 October, while reservations by email or telephone will open on 26 October.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Friday, October 30, 2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":17741,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false},"tags":[],"class_list":["post-17748","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fazioli.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/17748","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fazioli.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fazioli.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fazioli.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fazioli.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/17741"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fazioli.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17748"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fazioli.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17748"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
