Benjamin Grosvenor live in Paris

Experience Benjamin Grosvenor live on December 4th

Benjamin Grosvenor, a British pianist renowned for his insightful interpretations and poetic phrasing, will perform at the Théâtre des Champs-Elysées in Paris on December 4th, 2026. Grosvenor’s repertoire spans a wide range, from the core classical composers like Chopin and Liszt to more contemporary works, often displaying a particular affinity for French impressionistic composers such as Debussy and Ravel. His playing is characterized by a refined touch, technical brilliance, and a notable sensitivity to tonal colour. He gained international recognition after winning the 2004 Chopin International Piano Competition at the age of sixteen.

The Théâtre des Champs-Elysées holds significant historical and architectural importance. Opened in 1913, it was conceived as part of a larger urban planning project to create a grand avenue rivaling those of London and New York. Designed by Roger Séguier, the theatre quickly became a focal point for artistic innovation. Its early years saw performances by leading figures in music like Igor Stravinsky (whose *The Rite of Spring* premiered there amidst famously disruptive reactions) and Sergei Diaghilev’s Ballets Russes.
