25.01. Francesco Tristano & Luxembourg Philharmonic Academy 

He’s a «rising young pianist» with «rhythmic bite and color galore» according to the New York Times. So it hardly comes as a surprise to see with members of the Luxembourg Philharmonic Academy who, for an evening, will be stepping away from the orchestra to join the Luxembourgish musician in exploring some of the bold electronic realms with which he is clearly at home.
