Date with Daniil “Working with a soloist for the first time is a little like being on a blind date,” says Music Director Alan Gilbert—you never know what the chemistry will be. At the end of the month, 2011 Tchaikovsky Piano Competition Winner Daniil Trifonov makes a date for his Philharmonic debut. But the Music Director isn’t too worried about this first encounter, knowing that ”his musical thoughts are so refined, electric, and imaginative for the Prokofiev Third Piano Concerto. He’s a true sensation.”
