Early January evening at Kolkata is expected to be chilly but the winter has been off colour this season.
But the New Year Concert at the prestigious Sandre Hall was filled with such brilliance it left the audience more for Jana, a young pianist from Czech Republic.
All the seats were filled at the Sandre Hall and among the audience was present the Ambassador of Czech Republic who had come to Kolkata for a business meet but squeezed time out of his busy schedule to listen to Jana.
So it started..
The Special pianist weaving pure music for the Soul |
Jana blew such freshness into the audience with her opening B-flat minor Chopin piece the hall started reverberating. Followed by Preludes by Chopin which was mesmerising.
The style and warmth in her performance was something which really infects you wanting more.
The complete Moonlight Sonata was a pleasant surprise and Jana played it to perfection filling our souls with Beethoven's much loved piece.
She played two more beautiful pieces (Italian and Czech composers respectively) and finished off with a Dussek Dumka which was stunning. The piece influenced by Czech folk music made the audience come alive and bid farewell with cheerful hearts with promise of more such superb performances from Yana Chaudhuri in the future.
It was a privilege that I could witness this piano concert and it was my sister to whom I am grateful.
I look forward to be mesmerised again by your piano, Yana. Thank you for making this dull early January evening a special one.
Thank you for such a fabulous evening |
