About this Performance

One of the stars of our 2017 Reykjavík Festival, Víkingur Ólafsson returns with a fascinating solo recital devoted to keyboard music by Bach and Philip Glass.

Please note: Pianist Vikingur Olafsson has replaced the previously scheduled Murray Perahia for this recital. Perahia has been forced to withdraw due to a medical setback that has prevented him from performing publicly. He looks forward to returning to the stage in the not too distant future, as soon as his recovery is complete.
