Quadridexter artist Rajacenna has had a unique interview with one of the world's best pianists, Evgeny Kissin.

In the Main Hall of the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, sitting at one of the most expensive pianos in the world, the musical genius gave one of his rare interviews to the artist.


During this unique and inspiring conversation between these two leading ambidextrous talents, master pianist Kissin shared valuable perspectives on ambitions, perfection and how to make the most of a talent.

A striking and somewhat funny anecdote from the usually serious master pianist was "... the time the audience wouldn't let me go until half past one at night, and the fire brigade had to come on stage...."

 

To conclude this fascinating conversation, the virtuoso pianist played a performance of the final movement of Chopin Nocturne F-sharp for Rajacenna, played on his own concert piano.
