Dmitry Masleev live in Paris

Experience Dmitry Masleev live on November 13th

Dmitry Masleev, a Russian pianist recognized for his intensely focused and poetic interpretations, will perform at the Théâtre des Champs-Elysées in Paris on November 13, 2026. His playing is often described as possessing a remarkable clarity and depth of color, showcasing both technical brilliance and emotional sensitivity. Masleev gained international acclaim after winning the International Tchaikovsky Competition in 2017, and frequently performs works from the standard classical repertoire alongside lesser-known composers. He is known for a thoughtful approach to program construction and a dedication to exploring the narrative possibilities within each piece.

The Théâtre des Champs-Elysées holds significant historical and architectural importance. Opened in 1913, it was conceived as a venue dedicated to modern art forms – opera, ballet, symphony concerts and recitals – in response to perceived conservatism in existing Parisian halls. Its design, by Roger Séjourné with architectural contributions from William Bouvard, represents an Art Deco style blending classicism with modern elements. The theatre quickly became central to Parisian cultural life; notably, Igor Stravinsky’s *The Rite of Spring* premiered there amidst a famously riotous audience reaction.
