Roustem Saïtkoulov, Piano

Internationally recognized Franco-Russian pianist Roustem Saïtkoulov performs in Newburyport four days after performing at Carnegie Hall with violinist Maxim Vengerov. This is Saïtkoulov's second appearance in Massachusetts, after a standing room only concert at Boston's French Cultural Center a year ago. The program, The Lure of Paris, features two Eastern European composers, the Polish Chopin and the Russian Stravinsky, who spent much of their creative life in Paris, as well as French composer Debussy, born near Paris.
