Giorgi Gigashvili plays Chopin, Bach and Messiaen
Giorgi Gigashvili plays a Waltz by Chopin, a Choral Prelude by Bach and one of Messiaen's transcendental Vingt Regards sur l'Enfant-Jésus, plus film music from his native Georgia.
Giorgi Gigashvili, a current member of Radio 3's prestigious New Generation Artists scheme, plays music ranging from Chopin to Messiaen by way of a film track from his native Georgia.
Born in Tibilisi in 2000, Giorgi became a star in Georgia when he won The Voice at the age of 13 before going on to concentrate on the piano.
