An outstanding soloist, Kenny Broberg is also the grand finalist and Third Prize winner of the 2019 International Tchaikovsky Competition recently held in Moscow; his playing now demanded worldwide.

On 7 September, Kenny will perform on The Joan’s very own “Rolls Royce of pianos”, the Imperial Bösendorfer, handcrafted in Austria as the largest of all concert grand pianos and favoured by artists world-wide. It is worth upwards of $200,000 and can handle even the most complex of pieces, due to its inclusion of 97 keys, as opposed to a normal 88-key piano.

The programme for the evening will consist of an alluring set of movements and compositions; the first that of Johann Sebastian Bach from his famed sets of prelude and fugues. Audiences can expect to hear the beautiful Fantaisie; one of Chopin's longest and greatest works, as well as all six movements of Claude Debussy’s Children’s Corner, the famous and uplifting suite of works dedicated to the French composer’s daughter.

This spring, The Joan and the Competition welcome Kenny to Australia for his debut tour of the country. Audiences can expect to hear sublime playing that will undoubtedly confirm Kenny as one of the next great talents of the piano.

Don’t miss your chance to hear this extraordinary young artist when he appears for one night only at The Joan Sutherland Performing Arts Centre on Saturday 7 September at 7.30pm.
