Baloise Session — Jacob Collier / Tony Ann
The "Finale Virtuoso" to end this year's Baloise Session presents two piano players: the Brit Jacob Collier and the Canadian Tony Ann. While they share an instrument, their music is diametrically opposed: extroverted in the case of Collier and introspective in the case of Ann. For Collier, all music, his many instruments, the voice, and even the audience become part of his performance. He is the best ambassador one could wish for music. "Music is larger than life," he says. That’s certainly true of his music! When Ann sits at the piano, he gives his free rein to his feelings, finding melodies to give tonal expression to love, jealousy, or joy. Inspired by classical music, his virtuoso fingers fly over the keys. Impressive!
Tickets are CHF 90-130.
