UK Premiere Screening ‘Pianoforte’ Documentary & director Q&A with Jakub Piatek 27th Oct

UK Premiere of a documentary that follows hopefuls of the 2021 International Chopin Piano Competition in Warsaw followed by director Q&A.

27th October, 18:20, Bertha DocHouse, The Brunswick, London

Considered to be one of the most prestigious competitions in classical music, the International Chopin Piano Competition, held in Warsaw every five years since 1927, has been a career launchpad for the world’s greatest piano virtuosos.

Pianoforte navigates its way through the multi-stage competition alongside a selection of 2021’s elite young hopefuls.

We plunge deep into this world of nuanced notes and high drama, in a riveting, adrenaline rush of a film. The pressure is enormous, the practice is exacting, the performances are ecstatic.

The UK Premiere screening on Friday 27th October will be followed by a Q&A with director Jakub Piatek.
