Description:
The 18th Chopin Competition Live! 2021 Relive the moving performance by Manami Kobayashi, who deeply impressed the audience and achieved the remarkable feat of placing fourth! The 18th International Chopin Piano Competition, held in October 2021, was postponed for a year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Nevertheless, it attracted exceptionally talented musicians from around the world and generated unprecedented excitement thanks to the outstanding performances of Japanese contestants and global online streaming. Now, from the competition’s live recording series (Blue Series) released by the National Institute of Frédéric Chopin (NIFC)—the competition’s organizer—comes an urgent release of Manami Kobayashi’s performance. Amidst a competition where high-level performances were showcased one after another, her performance particularly moved the audience and led to her remarkable achievement of winning 4th place! Winner Bruce Liu, second-place finishers Kyohei Sorita and Alexander Gadzev, third-place winners Martín García García and JJ Jun Li Bui, Eva Gevorgian, and Hao Lao’s “17-Year-Old Trio,” as well as Georgijs Osokins, Simon Nering, and Nikolai Khojaynov—finalists from the previous two competitions—Aimi Kobayashi stood out among the outstanding pianists from around the world who delivered magnificent Chopin performances at the 18th competition. Aimi Kobayashi, who was also a finalist in the previous competition (the 17th edition in 2015), demonstrated the remarkable maturity she has achieved over the past few years throughout the entire competition, from the first preliminary round to the finals, captivating audiences in Warsaw and viewers around the world via live streaming. Aimi Kobayashi’s “World of Chopin” from the 18th International Chopin Piano Competition, performed at the Warsaw Philharmonic Concert Hall, is now brought to life here! Tokyo M-Plus
