Denis Kozhukhin to Replace Hélène Grimaud in Camerata Salzburg’s Concert at Megaron the Athens Concert Hall

We regret to inform the public that, due to a sudden illness and medical advice prohibiting air travel, Hélène Grimaud will be unable to travel to Athens and, therefore, will not be able to appear in the scheduled concert with the Camerata Salzburg Orchestra at Megaron the Athens Concert Hall.

The distinguished pianist expresses her deep regret for the cancellation.

Her place in the concert will be taken by the renowned Russian pianist Denis Kozhukhin, one of the most acclaimed and expressive performers of his generation, with an international presence and major collaborations on leading music stages. His appearance alongside the exceptional orchestra promises an exciting encounter with the art of piano and a unique musical experience for the Megaron audience.

The concert program remains unchanged.

The Salzburg Camerata was founded in 1952 by the great conductor, composer and musicologist Bernhard Baumgartner. Today, seventy-two years later, it continues its rich artistic work with undiminished success, under the direction of leading figures of the international music scene, including Leonidas Kavakos. The Orchestra’s concert at Megaron the Athens Concert Hall is undoubtedly one of the most important musical events of this year’s artistic season, not only for its sound, which is considered representative of Viennese classical music, but also for the programme it will present: two colossal symphonic masterpieces by Brahms, among the finest and most important works of German Romanticism.
