Havryil Sydoryk (piano)

In programme: Bach, Beethoven, Chopin, Eller, Lysenko, Dutilleux, Sydoryk

At just 16 years old, Ukrainian pianist Havryil Sydoryk, the winner of “Klassikatähed” (the Estonian Public Broadcasting competition for young performers), presents a full-length solo recital at the festival. His programme brings together masterpieces by his great idol Johann Sebastian Bach and other giants of music history, alongside works by Estonian and Ukrainian composers, as well as Sydoryk’s own compositions. Speaking about the piano, Sydoryk has said it allows him “to think orchestrally and offers limitless possibilities for realizing ideas and musical thoughts.” A remarkably talented young musician who studied several instruments in Ukraine, was forced to flee the war – first to France, where he studied at the Paris Municipal Conservatory, and later to Estonia in search of stronger musical education. He is currently studying at the Tallinn Music and Ballet School with teachers Age Juurikas (piano) and Reinut Tepp (harpsichord). Having learned Estonian in a short time, Sydoryk is also actively engaged in composition and violin studies, and has a strong interest in early music.
