Kyohei Sorita Piano Recital 2026: 10th Anniversary Debut Tour

About this event

To celebrate the renewal opening of the Fujinomiya Civic Cultural Center, a piano recital will be held by world-renowned pianist Kyohei Sorita, celebrating the 10th anniversary of his debut. Sorita won 2nd prize at the 2021 International Chopin Piano Competition—the highest ranking ever achieved by a Japanese pianist—and has continued to achieve remarkable success, including making his debut as a conductor at the Salzburg Festival in 2025. In this performance, a special program looking back on his brilliant trajectory to date while looking ahead to new challenges for the future will be presented. This is a rare opportunity to enjoy exquisite pieces such as Mozart's Piano Sonata No. 3, Brahms's Three Intermezzi, "Funerailles" from Liszt's "Harmonies poetiques et religieuses", and Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 29 "Hammerklavier" through Kyohei Sorita's outstanding performance.
