Nelson Goerner live in Ciboure

Experience Nelson Goerner live on August 29th

Nelson Goerner, an Argentinian pianist internationally recognized for his deeply poetic and intensely focused interpretations, will perform at Église Saint-Vincent in Ciboure, France on August 29, 2026. Goerner’s playing is often described as possessing a remarkable clarity of sound and a profound emotional depth, frequently showcasing Romantic and early 20th-century repertoire with a particular affinity for composers like Chopin, Rachmaninoff, and Debussy. He is known for his meticulous attention to voicing and phrasing, creating a uniquely intimate connection with the audience.

Église Saint-Vincent is a significant landmark in Ciboure, a Basque coastal town in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques department. Originally constructed in the 16th century, the church underwent substantial neo-Gothic renovations in the late 19th century led by architect Jean-Baptiste Lastaing. These renovations significantly altered its appearance, adding features characteristic of the Gothic Revival style. The church's interior features notable stained glass windows and serves as an important cultural and religious center for the local community. Its acoustics are considered favorable for chamber music performances due to its size and architectural characteristics.
