Emmanuelle Bertrand live in Paris

Experience Emmanuelle Bertrand live on October 17th

Emmanuelle Bertrand will perform a piano recital at Salle Cortot in Paris on October 17, 2026. Bertrand is a French pianist known for her interpretations of Romantic and contemporary composers, with a particular focus on the works of Franz Schubert, Robert Schumann, and György Kurtág. Her playing is often described as possessing both intellectual rigor and emotional depth, characterized by a refined touch and nuanced phrasing. She frequently explores lesser-known compositions alongside established repertoire.

Salle Cortot holds a significant place in Parisian musical history. Originally the home of the renowned piano teacher and collector Adolphe Cortot, it was opened as a concert hall in 1939 following his wife Rosalie’s death and her wish to create a space dedicated to chamber music. The hall is celebrated for its intimate atmosphere and exceptional acoustics, making it highly regarded by musicians and audiences alike. It has hosted performances by numerous prominent classical musicians throughout its history, becoming synonymous with high-quality piano recitals and chamber music concerts. The venue’s relatively small size – accommodating approximately 368 people – contributes to its unique and personal concert experience.
