At Hagakyrkan in Gothenburg, pianist Volodymyr Slakva performs the complete cycle of Frédéric Chopin’s Etudes — a unified concert program including both Opus 10 and Opus 25.
Performing this entire collection in a single concert is one of the most demanding challenges in the piano repertoire. Chopin’s etudes combine extraordinary technical virtuosity with deep musical expression and are regarded not merely as studies, but as fully developed artistic works.
During the concert, the audience will experience the etudes as a complete musical journey, where each piece contributes its own character — from lyrical intimacy and poetic reflection to dramatic intensity and powerful movement. The program offers a rare opportunity to hear Chopin’s piano music in its full breadth and context.
Within the resonant and focused acoustic atmosphere of Hagakyrkan, a listening environment is created that allows space for both immersion and presence. The concert invites the audience to a deeper encounter with one of the most significant and demanding cycles in piano literature.
