Volodos After the Final Bow – Intimate Encores, Part II.

Volodos: Poetry in Precision There are pianists who dazzle with brilliance, and then there is Arcadi Volodos, who reshapes the very idea of what brilliance means. From the earliest days of his meteoric rise, Volodos stunned the world with an effortless technique—staggering in its clarity, devastating in its power. But what has emerged since those early triumphs is a musician of rare introspection, a pianist for whom virtuosity is no longer an end, but a tool in service of truth. Volodos plays Schubert, Schumann, and Liszt not as monuments but as confessions. Under his fingers, their music breathes with uncanny directness, stripped of affectation and laid bare in all its vulnerability. His tonal palette is astonishing—capable of glacial stillness one moment, searing intensity the next. No phrase escapes his care, no silence is accidental. He listens deeply, and compels us to do the same. A native of Saint Petersburg, Volodos has become a singular voice in our time: a seeker more than a showman, a poet more than a performer. His recitals, often centered around the same Romantic core, are anything but predictable. What he offers is not a display, but an invitation—to enter the inner sanctum of music. Hello dear listeners! I'm sharing a video of the bis (encore) performed by Arcadi Volodos at the end of his concert. These pieces are incredibly moving, but I wasn’t able to identify them. If anyone recognizes the music he's playing, I’d be so grateful if you could let me know in the comments. Thank you kindly!
