What to expect
On Thursday, January 29, 2026, don’t miss an exceptional musical evening at La Seine Musicale. The young and brilliant pianist Jonathan Fournel, awarded the First Prize at the prestigious Queen Elisabeth Competition in 2021, will perform a recital in the Patrick Devedjian Auditorium. For his very first recital at La Seine Musicale, he invites us on a true inner journey, woven from masterpieces of the Romantic and post-Romantic repertoire.
In a venue with exceptional acoustics, you will discover a performance as sensitive as it is powerful of essential composers like Beethoven, Chopin, Schubert, and also Medtner, a lesser-known but deeply inspired composer. Jonathan Fournel has captivated international stages with his nuanced touch, inner listening, and remarkable musicality. This recital will be an opportunity to measure the full depth of his art.
A unique evening under the sign of emotion and virtuosity
A rich and contrasting program
This recital has been carefully built around four very distinct musical worlds. Opening the concert is the Sonata No. 31 in A-flat major, Op. 110 by Ludwig van Beethoven. A late work by the composer, it combines dramatic intensity and spirituality, heralding the boldness of Romanticism. It demands from the pianist profound expressiveness and great clarity in nuances.
Next comes the Andante Spianato and Grande Polonaise brillante, Op. 22 by Frédéric Chopin, an emblematic piece of Romantic virtuosity. Alternately lyrical and brilliant, it is one of the pinnacles of the piano repertoire. Fournel reveals all his technical mastery and sense of elegance in this work.
The program also highlights two Fairy Tales by the Russian composer Nikolai Medtner, whose abundant oeuvre remains little played. These intimate pieces, resembling sound poems, are true musical gems, rich in color and mystery.
Finally, to conclude this evening beautifully, the Fantasy in C major, D.760, nicknamed the Wanderer Fantasy, by Franz Schubert, will crown the program. A work of considerable scope, it combines passion, introspection, and power. Its original structure, linking four movements without pause, makes it a pianistic challenge and an intense moment for the audience.
