XIV Tchaikovsky competition - Round III - piano

Daniil Trifonov 24.06.11, Moscow. Downloaded from competition's website


The order of the performances of round III was just published this morning on the competition's website. In contrast to previous rounds where the pianists were playing their full repertoire in one performance, in the 3rd round the performances are split so that each competitor will play one concerto per performance. The performances are scheduled for the following 4 days, Monday till Thursday. Monday and Tuesday the 5 finalists will play 1 concerto. We will hear Tchaikovsky 3 times and Rachmaninoff concerto twice. Wednesday and Thursday the 5 will play their 2nd concerto which will include twice the Tchaikovsky concerto, Rachmaninoff, Brahms and Chopin once. The organizers mixed the order between the Tchaikovsky concerto and the free choice concerto so that we won't have to listen 3 times to Tchaikovsky in one night, or maybe they split it for another reason, but that's good enough for me.... :)

Last but not least, in previous post I added a link to Daniil Trifonov's blog where you can listen to him playing at the Chopin competition, music by Chopin.

This link is to Daniil's website media archive where you can listen to more pieces played by Daniil incl. Scarlati, Mozart (piano concerto No.23 played in both Rubinstein and Tchaikovsky competitions), Liszt, Prokofiev, Scriabin and of course, Chopin:
