Kristian Bezuidenhout, fortepiano
Kristian Bezuidenhout has recorded the complete keyboard music of Mozart and Mendelssohn, much of it since his last SMF visit in 2012. A regular guest with the world’s leading ensembles including the Freiburger Barockorchester (with whom he recorded the Mozart Piano Concertos), Les Arts Florissants, Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, Orchestre des Champs
Elysées, Chicago Symphony Orchestra and the Leipzig Gewandhausorchester, Bezuidenhout has guest-directed (from the keyboard) the English Concert, Orchestra of the Eighteenth Century, Tafelmusik and Collegium Vocale, and has performed with Sir John Eliot Gardiner, Frans Brüggen, Trevor Pinnock, Isabelle Faust, Alina Ibragimova, Anne Sofie von Otter and Mark Padmore. He returns with an all-Mozart recital performed on the instrument Mozart himself would have played.
