Hélène Tysman, the young French pianist who has been hailed by London’s Daily Telegraph as “poetic”, will give two concerts at Os Agostos country estate, near Santa Bárbara de Nexe, during April. The first, on Tuesday, April 17, will feature works by Bach and Debussy; the second, on Thursday, April 19, will see Hélène play music by Chopin and Ravel.
Hélène Tysman was born in Paris and began her piano studies at the Paris Conservatoire under Pierre-Laurent Aimard and later in Vienna with Oleg Maisenberg. She obtained her Master’s at Hochschule für Musik Franz Liszt, Weimar. Since becoming a laureate of the 16th International Chopin Competition in Warsaw, Hélène has emerged as one of the leading French pianists of her generation.
Hélène has given numerous recitals throughout Europe, Asia and the USA, and has performed with the BBC National Orchestra of Wales, Russian Chamber Philharmonic, Minnesota Orchestra, North Czech Philharmonic and many others.
She has toured China where she performed at some of the country’s most prestigious concert halls. Hélène’s Carnegie Hall debut was made in 2015.
She has also been featured on Mezzo, the international arts television station and on French national radio. Her first CD recording was devoted to Chopin. This was after winning the first prize in the International Chopin Piano Competition in Darmstadt.
Hélène has since made more Chopin recordings as well as a Schumann CD of chamber music with wind instruments accompaniment.
Amigos de Música concerts at Os Agostos begin at 7pm sharp. Doors open at 6pm and wine, fruit juices and canapés will be served. Entry donation is €25 per person for guests and non-members.
The Amigos de Música is an international group of around 90 members who stage musical activities by internationally renowned musicians.
