The event
The concert brings two generations into dialogue. Julian Kainrath, a violinist from South Tyrol born in 2005, won the Ysaÿe Competition in 2025 and the ICMA Discovery Award in 2022. Lilya Zilberstein, a pianist born in Moscow, made her name in 1987 by winning the Busoni Competition in Bolzano and has since played in the world's major halls.
The program includes Grieg's Sonata for violin and piano no. 3 in C minor op. 45, Brahms's Sonata no. 2 in A major op. 100, a selection from Prokofiev's «Romeo and Juliet» suites in the version for violin and piano, and Prokofiev's Sonata no. 2 in D major op. 94 bis.
