ADAM GYORGY GIVES ROUSING PERFORMANCE AT CARNEGIE HALL
New York, NY November 25, 2011 On Sunday, November 13, classical music pianist Adam Gyorgy lifted his public out of their seats at Carnegie Hall, offering a program that included the Liszt Sonata in b minor, virtuoso Liszt Transcriptions, a Paganini-Liszt étude, a Hungarian Rhapsody, and works of Chopin. Adam Gyorgy delivered showmanship through the 90-minute program, opening with "The Island", one of his own compositions, and playing one encore: the Liszt-Horowitz transcription of Mendelssohn's "Wedding March" to which he added his own arrangements. It was the last concert of his 2011 U.S./Canada Tour.
Selected Press Reviews:
"The lineup included the ubiquitous Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2, from a set of 19 works by Liszt that reflect the folk music of his native Hungary. Mr. Gyorgy certainly has enough technique for the piece, and he played it with panache, as he did Liszt's equally popular "Campanella." .."He also demonstrated a warm touch in Liszt's daunting Sonata in B minor, playing the slower parts with introspective poise and deftly navigating the technical challenges(...)"
Vivien Schweitzer, New York Times
"Adam's original improvisations bring back the personalizing touch of the golden era of romantic performers like Liszt, while his improvisations are truly modern and harmonic." .."Wonderfully poetic and alive, it was the best Liszt Sonata I have heard, a revelatory proof that as great a work as I thought it was going in, it was even greater, far more multi-faceted in impact than I'd even imagined."

Praise for Adam's performance at the 2011 Festival of the Sound...
"Breathtaking: Liszt's Sonata in B-minor...Gyorgy gave a performance of great nuance and subtlety...[he] had a clear grasp of the complex structure, and gave us many subtle insights into the music's construction...holding the audience so securely in his hands that there followed a breathless silence of close to 20 seconds. Then the hall erupted in an instant standing ovation.

TimeOut Singapore: Interview with Adam...
Your concert last year featured a live video feed while you performed. Gimmick or modern necessity?
Adam:
......Projecting the hands on a big screen, there is no difference between seats on the left or right, and everyone can enjoy the sound and the motion of hands at the same time.
