Kian Soltani live in Tsinandali

Experience Kian Soltani live on September 9th

Kian Soltani, a celebrated Iranian-German cellist, will perform at the Chamber Music Hall in Tsinandali, Georgia on September 9, 2026. Soltani is recognized for his deeply expressive and technically assured performances of both standard cello repertoire and lesser-known works. His playing is often described as possessing a rich tonal palette and a compelling emotional depth, drawing comparisons to artists like Rostropovich and Casals. He frequently collaborates with prominent orchestras and conductors internationally and is known for championing contemporary compositions alongside classical masterworks.

The Chamber Music Hall at Tsinandali Estate holds significant cultural importance. Located within the historic Tsinandali Estate, once the residence of Prince Alexander Chavchavadze, a prominent figure in Georgian Romanticism, the hall was inaugurated in 2018. It was designed by architect Jürgen Engelhardt with acoustics specifically tailored for chamber music performance. The estate itself has a long history of hosting artistic gatherings; Alexander Chavchavadze was renowned for his patronage of the arts and welcoming writers like Pushkin and Griboyedov.
